Recently I spent some time going thru my kit stash. It had been some time since I had last done this and I happily rediscovered a number of kits that I had started in the past. That past was indeed some time a go, infact it goes back to the last century as I had put the hobby aside for many years before returning to the fold.
So I now have a small stack of kits that are my must finish for 2013. Four of them are closely connected and are from my "Soviet Era" that time after the end of the Cold War when a steady stream of Soviet types were being kitted and previously unknown information was becoming widely available. On my desk now are - Dragon 1/144 SU-22M-3, Hobbycraft 1/72 SU-22U, KP 1/72 SU-7BMK and VEB Plasticart 1/72 SU-7. The Dragon kit will be up first as it will be the easiest finished.
