Thanks for Bruno, Tony and Lorenzo for sharing such a beautiful AN-2. Can someone advise if any making thread for this model? I try searching here with Antonov but cannot find any. Many thanks!!

Looking good Tony. I assume we are going with this earlier livery It does look far better than the later greyed out one I think, and far more likely at the time I flew on it.

I'll try and fit in a practice run with the TWA one in order to get my fingers working again.

I just uploaded a repaint of the AN-2 to the downloads. NVAF Lima Site 85 attacker, shot down by a crewman in an Air America helicopter with a M-16.

This repaint is untested so if anyone builds it and has a problem with alignment, let me know.

That is a very good AN-2 Brent.Did you re-draw some of the lines in black?Weathering does look amazing I just don't know if printers can pick it up.

Are you sure it was a M-16 and not an AK-47

Thank you very much for this unique plane, participant in one of the rarest encounter. Usually is the helicopter being hit by the plane. The exception were the air to air combats between Hinds and Cobras in the Iran-Iraq War (some one mentioned a Syrian Hind downing Israeli F-4, is this true or apocryphal? And maybe an Alouette in Africa?)

Thank you again.

Just downloaded your An-2 repaint Brent. I can sum it up in one word: art. Your expertise is on a level all recolourists should aspire to.

thanks to Brent for the Vietnamese An-2, and below I put the most interesting version of Polish An-2, it's LALA-1, if someone made such a model based on what Bruno did, I would be grateful, because nowhere is this model.

Brent, thanks for your North Vietnamese An-2! It's a really beautiful repaint. Will be definitely on my "models to build" list.
