Arkady72 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 What can I say about my personal MiG, you made so many mistakes. For people who never seen this aircraft your model looks great, but not for me. Next time watch a pictures before paint and assembling parts. Sorry for the critique, but you knew me I always saying true. Marek, I am aware of most of the errors. But I don't care about it so much. I love modeling the same as just when I was a little boy and nothing will change it. I do not wanna lose this feeling like the others... Thanks for your comment, I know your a Flogger specialist but it would be great if you could sometimes see the positive aspects too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warmest regards, Oscar, from Chile I agree with Oscar, did Monet's paintings look realistic, hell no! If I could make and paint models like that I wouldn't be bothered what anybody else says anyway, cracking Flogger Artur (what missiles does your Mondeo carry Artur?).

CatcliffeDemon Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Inspirational work as ever, a will never tire of seeing your outstanding models. A great build of a fantastic looking plane (although I prefer Mig-21s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan B Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) Hi Duncan, nice to see you in my thread. My Pug carry on only flare dispenser on the rear, you know we doing only peacekeeping missions . I'm still stuck in the cold war so I've got 'winders fitted to the BMW to get the white van man! (I know you're opinion of BMW drivers, I fit right in:) ) How I could do with your help right now, I struggling with a couple of Me109's that don't want to look the way they should! They started off 1/48 but I think they'll be 1/32 by the time I get the paint right. Patience is a virtue they say so I'll get there in the end.

madcop Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Hello Arkady Truly amazing work ... I have no other words. Artistic and so real at the same time. Well balanced ! Just 1 question. From the numerous pictures and books Icollected on the MiG-23 , cockpits always appear in that typical russian shade of blue-green. You painted yours in black-grey . Is it an "artitistic licence " or did the Pole repainted their MiG-23 cockpits in this shade ?. As I am planning to do this MiG-23 in a light grey scheme , I would be pleased to have some informations about this matter . Thanks a lot and all my congratulations go to you.
