Just a no-photo update: Haven't had much time to devote to the cause here, but I've started building the interiors. My plan is to build them a a series of panels and then essentially build the interiors wall by wall. Floors and bulkheads are cut, most of the interior sides as well. I found that the Orel MBR-2 kit (also a Beriev design) has the ShKas MG, so I'm going to simply copy that, rather than try to scratchbuild it. Much of the interior will be guesswork, but I should be able to get something believable.
