Feel warmly welcomed, Mates! I have new reading glasses, Łukasz 😉

The next step will be masking the canopy and windscreen... Plan B is to use the strips of decal.

What a nice small metal pipe 😁. I looking for this plane in 1:48 skill. Maybe in the future...

Not yet, Mates. Thank you for your interest, nevertheless. Now I must grow confident enough to mask the canopy and windscreen...

Oh, that is so small that I overlooked it?! Another cabinet space saving beauty 👍

That one is small indeed - no wonder as it is a close cousin of Yak-3 😉

I hadn't realised it is actually sitting on a matchbox... That really is small!

Even in 1:48 scale it is a small model. But in this scale it's a real hummingbird. And with the yellow tail, it looks really nice. 👍

This was an unique plane - a 'real' jet fighter, but with civilian registration - in the late 1950' when Communist Party ruled Poland...

Missed the finish phase, but it looks grand. Hope you don't need new glasses now? 😉

Thank you, Mates, much appreciated 😉 Glasses? No....magnifiers 😄

Most excellent 👌🏻
Congratulations on this little one Robert!
Strong magnifying glasses are used on all my builds nowadays, I am having troubles with 72nd scale, so these small ones wouldn't be suitable for me 😂
