This is my recently finished "factory fresh" 1/48 Il-2m3 (Accurate Miniatures). It was built out of the box, painted with Vallejo Model Air, Vallejo Metal Color and Gunze H85 on the control surfaces.

It's like each panel tells a story about the plane's construction - excellent work sir!

If you want to do a 'how to paint plastic as wood tutorial' on YouTube, I'd subscribe. 😄

Very beautiful! A break from the tons of weathering and chipping and preshading etc that we are used to try to achieve, is always very welcome.
I guess that wood is painted with stencil(?). Impressive result!

@Giannis Kaltapanidis: I used Zoukei-Mura Wood Grain PM mask for the grains.

What a magnificent result. !!
The 'wood grain' masking is produced by uschivdr.com/ for Zouki Mura.
Made in Germany.

@Kerry COX: Good to know. Masking curved surfaces are hard on the PE, so after a few more models, I probably need a new one 🙂 Thanks for the info.
I used Uschi's "Rig That Thing" for the antenna wire.

Good to know Thomas. I loved what the wood grain decals did for my Ho-229. !
