  1. No WiP for this one folks...but I think this is my first finished kit of 2020! Eduard's lovely Mig-21MF from their Dual Combo box. It is the aircraft flown in Angola during 1976 by Cuban General Rafael del Pino. I tell you, I have been putting this off for so long. The thought of this kit scared me. Over a year I balked. Result? It's a wonderful kit, very tight fit tolerances and more stencils than you can shake a stick at. I mean, really, guys...crazy amount of stencilling, but I managed to get 95% of them on and where they should be. All the paints are Vallejo Air or Vallejo Model. OOB completely. I pin washed with black/brown oils and I am happier with this than Flory Wash. Sometimes the Flory just seems too 'dirt-like', know what I mean? I learned a lot about this kit, as a whole, since this is, more or less, just like all the other Mig-21 kits Eduard will make. For me, I will skip the PE and the resin seat in the future. I had a heck of a time getting the cockpit all together with the PE, the resin, etc...and with a closed canopy, you can't see it anyway. Next one will be all plastic and decals. Much easier. In any case, if you haven't built one of these Migs, you must. It's on the same scale of detail and fit as their Spitfire range. Very nice indeed! On a different note, I forget what a small aircraft the Mig-21 really is. Much smaller than the -15/-17...certainly more elegant that the -19. Sleek, a little dart. And compared to the US aircraft? Miniature... Here's some pictures... Here's a bit of a pile of Migs. And it is destined to just get bigger. 2 of the new Airfix Mig-17 kits are coming and a KoPro Mig-19 as well. Next up for me will be the Finnish KoPro Mig-21Bis. Look like a decent kit and the roundels are in register. --Happy modelling and Happy 2020!
