Hi,
so I decided to make my own KG13. It is/will be made of epoxy kit (Poxilina). I am using French plans, some German instruction for KG12 and a lot of pictures of original and replica ones sticks.

Full gallery is here (will be updated over time):

Unfortunatelly I have no idea yet how to make a checkering - I have to check if it is possible to use this PU plates:

By the way:

are those 'French' measures taken with or without the rubber that covers the grip?

I have set a deadline - it must be ready for Il-2: Battle Of Kuban release smile

Looks lovely so far..Someone here did the diamond pattern grip on a P51 grip replica by using a triangle file.

Here the guy describe how he add corrugations to a real Russian P-1M (copy of KG-12/13), but seems using a vacum camera.
