Hi all bit stuck on a few painting of parts.
Firstly the Radome, I have the correct green but not sure how far it goes, some pictures show MiGs where they expand past a “ring” however some are steel coloured. Not sure what to paint this part? Thoughts?
that’s the steel ring at the back of the radome.
Here’s the referencing for the 111 Cuban MiG-21R
it appears to expand all the way green and maybe even have blue at the bottom. However this seems to be the after a shoddy post 90s repaint, where it differs from the instructions.
NEXT challenge is the landing gear,
instructions call for them to painted the respective Interior green/Grey in the wells and LIGHT GULL GREY ON THE LEGS.!!??!!
obviously this is incorrect for this MiG, on the inside I went for the 324 lower colour similar to other MiGs seen (Reference PF at Cosford lower blue continued into wells, light grey on legs) but on further analysis of reference I’m now not sure wether the Wells and Legs should be painted more of a metallic, or if this is a product of a shoddy repaint? Thoughts?
