Very nice.

If I may be so bold as to suggest a further improvement...
Some flock on the bases s well as tufts?

Thanks Lemmy!

I've made the effort to texture the base, so if i decided to put few flock, so it can be visible...

I am experimenting a little bit with basing

You say that you are experimenting with your bases. If I can throw my tuppence worth in might I suggest that you use lighter colours on your bases, especially as you have dark colours on your figures. It's amazing the difference it makes. They are nicely painted and a lighter base will make them stand out more.

Very nice I think it takes a bit of experimentation before one is completely happy.

Take care

Is the Sturmovik from Zvezda or is it a metal plane? Looks great on the table  8)

Word of warning on the Zvezda Sturmovik, it's the single-seat Il-2 which proved a liability in action. The improved two-seat Il-2M is a lot more dificult to find in 1/144th scale.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

It's also £11.00 compared to £2.69 for the Zvezda one. I'm not eight quids worth of interested in that level of detail :)
