1:72 Zvezda MiG-21bis Soviet Union


Recommended Posts

The 1:72 Zvezda kit of the MiG-21bis in Soviet markings.

 

Built as an aircraft from the 797th Training Regiment around the early 1990s in an overall grey scheme.

No issues with the build of the kit. This one thankfully didn't have any short shot parts like the last one did.

Missiles are a mix of kit parts and from  Dragon's Air to Air Missiles set.

 

No issues with decals from Begemot. Option 7 on the sheet.

Overall Tamiya XF-19 grey.

Nice and proper build! For my personal taste, perhaps even a bit too proper. ;-)

 

An all grey scheme has a tendency to look a bit bland and uninteresting to me, without some discreet panel shading and judicial weathering. But, de gustibus non est disputandum

 

Kind regards,
