0I've just realised it's difficult to read the note on the instructions - use Ctrl + to zoom in!

That is why these kinds of reviews are so valuable...it will influence what I purchase. Gone are the days, for me, of laborious building of modern kits that still require tons of corrections OOB. I save that kind of workmanship for kits I choose to change/correct. I'll probably be skipping this one although I do like the subject matter.

Meng has a nice-looking Shilka that just started shipping. It'll be interesting to compare it to this one.

Sorry for resurrecting this old thread. I got the kit on an exhibition yesterday (37Euros).
Where do I find bigger pictures of the instructions pages with the comments from Ian?
Thanks,
Thomas

Darren,
when they are opened, they are still too small. That´s why I ask. I barely can read the comments. And enlarging them with Crtl + makes it blurry.
