There’s a rather big difference in sizes. VEB kit is true to scale wether Tamiya kit is not. I've also hand brushed two coats of Gunze Silver H8. Also I've still manged to keep most that "lovey huge rivets" of old kits. 😉
Another retro-modelling project ... It should be 1/100 scale but is much smaller than the Tamiya Fishbed .... In the end it turned out that Tamiya kit is overscaled. So, in fact, VEB kit is really a 1/100 scale model. As usual in my retro-modelling projects ... no putty , no wet sanding , no airbrushing ,,, just fun ! ,,,, and lots of huge rivets ,,, hahahahahaha
