Yes, it's a good kit for it's scale, you can build it out of box with a few miner issue

Since I had to open the door and some hatches I had to make some interior details where it will be seen

Aircraft Modeling / Ilyushin IL-76

Well, this one needs a proper introduction. I think you all know Nicolas Cage's movie War Lord, and it has a sceene in Africa when they land an An12 in the desert full of weapons. Well this actually happened but with a few differences,it wasn't An 12 it was IL 76 qnd not africa but on a little sport airfield near Dubai UAE.

Friend of mine who's in Dubai a few years now asked me to build this aircraft for him. The kit is Trumpeter 1/144 scale.

First I located all the doors and hatches on the fuselage which needs to be cutted out as well as a few small windows which needed to be drilled out, trumepeter gives them as part of fuselage in solid plastic.

Thank you my friends !

The fuselage is finally in pre-Surfacer shape. As seen on the photos the areas around the cockpit an engine is from metal and its a bit leveled up from the rest of the fuselage. i made theese elements from a thin brass plate, to make " positive " rivets I made the on the backside of each plate and when glued to surface it give a nice effect of rivets standing out from the surface.
