Spence Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Hi everyone! Here's my next project being built for Issue 2 of Cold War Aircraft Modeller, Great Wall Hobby's stunning 1/48 MiG-29 Fulcrum. This is easily in the top two or three 1/48 kits I've ever built: the levels of detail are incredible and the ease of assembly, finesse and features all have to be seen to be believed! All of the items that you see here are 'from the box' I've simply painted up the kit parts ready for the pictures. I hope that you like them!

FalkeEins Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 looks absolutely fab ! ... ( but then given the RRP you'd sort of expect that ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 You can get them a bit cheaper on the net, but I think they'll come down in price here before long.Most of their other kit have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flankerman Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Not my scale - nor subject - but you're doing a great job on a great kit (by all accounts) I took some cockpit (and walkround) pics of the resident MiG-29 when we visited Vasilkov AB in the Ukraine in 2010.... They also had a K36 seat on display..... Shout if you want more...... Ken 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Kelley Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Really looks the part. So far GWH really look like pushing out the bar in erms of detail- a big rival to Tamiya? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spence Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hey guys - thanks a lot for the comments. I'm pleased that you like what I've done so far on this amazing model. It really is a stunning kit and so much fun to work on! The airframe is now together and I'll be carrying out my usual round of sanding and work on the seams around the model - a bit I don't particularly enjoy, but one that is absolutely essential if a neat model is to result!

LT Motta Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) Ok, I give up! I'm buying one for me right now! The kit is fantastic but you are doing an amazing work too! Edited September 23, 2014 by LT Motta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintsPhil Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I've been waiting to see one built and this has sold it! I can't believe that pit is from the box!! I think I know where the spare marking schemes from my Eduard kit might end up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
