viper3111 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 That is a blinding build, I love the tub colour, what paint is it because I had to 'trial and error' mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy hood Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 There great builds, this is the second Eduard Mig 21 ive built, adn wont be the last , i had to mix the pit colour to match the pre painted etched cockpit panels included with the kit, i used humbrol paints (cant remember which numbers of the top of my head though) i do have a couple of tins of xtracolor russian cockpit blue but it is slightly different shade to the eduard pre painted colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper3111 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Its a shame that no company has got the paint close enough as yet. Ive got the model masters cockpit green but its too light so I, as you had to mix. I used 3 vallejo paints to get what looked close enough to me. Yours looks pretty much spot on (not that Im an expert, I just like what I see) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnylurve Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 From what i've read about Russian aircraft, the greeney/bluey cockpit colour was supposed to provide a 'calming' environment for the pilot. Not sure if that's strictly true or not. i don't think I would feel too relaxed in such a garish colour, but then again I'm not a Russian pilot. No matter, it's a nice rendition of this type. Well done chap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
