Arkady72 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Trumpeter kit with Aires cockpit, wheel bays, exhaust nozzle and Quickboost auxiliary air intakes. I used also Zactmodels R-60 missiles with double pylons. This plane is IMHO one of the most beatiful jet at all. MiG-23MF model and his big brother . Yes I know I am a bit crazy...

Val Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I thought I was looking at a walk around, but that meant the car in the last pic would have been HUGE!! Absolutely stunning work, just perfect in every way, especially the weathering. Thank you for sharing that with us. Val Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestFan Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Superb, and great photography too. I would like to get my hands on this kit, though will probably settle for the 48 scale version when it's out. Cheers FF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackG Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Another dazzling build! I think though this is more a display of artistry than a mimic of reality. The cockpit though does look really good. regards, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcclure Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'll take issue with the Mig 23 being a beautiful plane but as far as beautiful model making goes - you win my friend! Fantastic stuff. Thanks so much for sharing that with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkady72 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 just about to say the same thing. Has the nose been subjected to the salt weathering technique? Yes, I used wet salt on lower and upper surfaces. JackG Another dazzling build!I think though this is more a display of artistry than a mimic of reality. The cockpit though does look really good. Jack, I have been there in Krakow Polish Aviation Museum about a week ago and I saw that 120 Flogger too. I must say I was embarrassed with the condition of the airplanes outside... This place should be called as aviation cemetery. Even new exhibits like Jag or Harrier very soon will looks bad as others. Only the planes hidden in the hangars look very good: exdraken Zacto R-60 are one of the nicest things I ever saw! looking forward to the 1/48 version as well!!! R-60 from Zactmodels are superb, agree! Thanks for all comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
