Oh sure, John ! Now that my Avenger is almost done & my Stormovik will be painted this week ! Laugh [(-D] (just kidding).
Squadron has the single-seat Il-2 with skis (all wheel parts also included) on sale for $12.99. Its a great deal, if anyone's interested.

John - I got replacement decals for the Avenger (Thanks, Swanny !), and I hope to have the Stormovik's airframe assembled by Sunday or Monday. The Avenger will be done by the end of the week, and the Il-2 probably the following week. Too much of a head start, I think. I've also got AM's B-25, but the airframe is all assembled & ready for paint (which I have on order). That's the extent of my AM stash.Sad [:(]

I just bought this kit too a couple of weeks ago, and it is a great bargain. So if you're looking for people for a group build on this one I could join you guys on it. Just have to
finish the 1/72 Revell Lancaster on my table. Should be done in a week or two. This
Sturmovik would be my first ever Russian WWII aircraft (have built 2 Migs before), so I'm
looking forward to it.

Hmmmmmmmm sounds like a good reason to finish these two Censored [censored] Panda F-35's. I have a few Accurate Miniature kits that I can do. I have the Il2m3, a Yak 1, an A-36 Apache and an Avenger. So I guess you can say you can count me in.

Well just went through the Il-2m3 and the Yak-1 to see what paints I am going to need. Tommorrow I will go get them since they told me yesterday that I have to work nights Disapprove [V]. Oh well gives me time before I have to go to work to finish the two I am working on now and go to the hobby shop after I go see my girlfriend at lunch time. Question [?] Why isnt this posted as a sticky?

Hmmm looks like Ill be buying 3 new kits for maybe 3 other group builds so I may have to use one of the kits i have on hand rather then buying a Russian plane so if it stands at any AM kit then Im still in!
