1:72 South Front L-39ZA Albatros Lithuania


Recommended Posts

The 1:72 scale L-39 kit from South Front built in the current day Lithuanian markings.

 

While this kit may resemble the Eduard kit in some ways, but it's a bit rough around the edges compared to the Eduard kit. Wing parts are quite thick, so needed quite a bit of sanding to get a half decent fit. Canopy fit wasn't good at all.

 

Colour used is overall Model master 2058 grey.

 

Decals used are from Printscale and leftover KP decals. No issues with the Printscale decals, but I ripped one when drilling out the holes for the pitot tubes in the leading edge of the wing, hence having to dig out a KP sheet from the spares file.
