Devo Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) G'day All, This is my take on the Revell Mig-25 RBT(re-boxed ICM kit). Nice kit. It took a couple of months to get done.OOB with the exception of eduard etched belts(from a Mig-21) on the kit seat and the aerial behind the cockpit, which was a re-shaped F-4 pitot. Humbrol and Tamiya enamels applied using the Ye Olde hairy stick method. Apologies if the images are to large but as PB went away, I posted these with vgy.me and that's how big they appeared on here. Edited September 24, 2017 by Devo trying to get images sorted. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Very nice, and your hairy wand work is impressive too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger331 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Great model of a great machine.......and I cannot believe you finished the paintwork with a brush !......very impressive. I knew this aircraft was big but it was not until I visited our local museum in Tartu that I realized just how big it is, especially when you climb the ladder to access the cockpit. The museum had a former MiG-25 pilot on hand for their annual air day and he was showing visitors the cockpit - sadly I don't understand Estonian or Russian but I still managed to get some nice shots of the cockpit though the access ladder was not for those that suffer from vertigo !. Mark Pretty immaculate cockpit interior Just to prove that those Eduard tape masks don't have to be 100% perfect.....this sealant was quite roughly applied to the windscreen ! Please note, these photos are NOT of the MiG-25RBT but another variant that does appear to have some non-standard bumps on the forward fuselage and one flat fairing housing either a camera or a spotlight (offset to starboard). I will see if I can check on the variant. Postscript: It appears to be a MiG-25RBS Foxbat-D variant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
