Airfix IL-2

As shown by this grainy photo I have been working on an old Airfix IL-2 Shturmovik to add to my Soviet Force. This kit has a few problems according to the reviews I have read, but looks like the flying tank so that's all that matters for wargaming purposes (if I say that enough times I will start believing it...).
The kit goes together very well and other than a missing light cover I had zero problemo's with it until tonight when I mislaid the rear gunners canopy for a while.
Decaling starts tomorrow and I will post some better pic's then.
