There have been quite a few requests for a list of model shops in Moscow, so I have created a page to list those I have visited, together with maps & directions :-
I have a few articles about modelling Soviet & Russian aircraft, ranging from the 1930's TB-1 'Zveno' through the Great Patriotic War Petlyakov Pe-8 right up to the very latest Sukhoi S-37 & MiG 1.44.
Most of these articles are located on other web sites - to which I have provided links.
The first one on this site is an article about modelling the Antonov An-71 AWACS aircraft - NATO Reporting name, Madcap.
