1:72 Eduard MiG-15SB Czechoslovakia


Recommended Posts

This is the second kit in the dual kit boxing of the Eduard MiG-15.

 

The first build as a MiG-15bisSB can be found here.

 

Both these kits are built as the SB fighter bomber version of the MiG-15/MiG-15bis.

After building the first one as the MiG-15bisSB armed with bombs, this one is the earlier MiG-15SB armed with the alternate rocket load.

 

No major issues with the building of the kit, but however I did find again it needs a lot of weight in the nose.

 

Overall finish is Tamiya XF-16 aluminium.

Decals are a mix of the kit roundels and bumbers from the spares file.

Very neat and clean build! That said, since I assume the original would basically have been natural metal, not silver doped, some panel hue variations would've made the finish a bit more interesting…

 

Nice work all the same!

 

Kind regards,

 

Joachim
