Hello guys.  Here is my latest.  The well known Zvezda Mi-24V model kit which is a nightmare to build due to the poor fit of the parts.

My model represents a Russian Air Force Mi-24V during their intervention in Dagestan against Islamic militia back in 1999.  I scratchbuilt the instrument panel and many other cockpit details like seatbelts and the gunsight.  I rescribed the panel lines completely because Zvezda has the shallowest ones in the scale plastic world.  

The paints used are Revell enamels and Gunze acrylics.  The decals came from the spares box.
