SaintsPhil Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I'd better get on and create my build thread before I finish the kit! To start with I'm building the Eduard Mig 21MF, a bis will be coming shortly! I started on Saturday but site was down so I can only post now! So after a few hours work it looks like this: Forgot how good this scale was for an easy win! This is a great kit, no filler required, well at least I don't think there is....primer next so we'll see after that! Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrvr6 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 whats the trick to masking the canopy or is it just patience and a steady hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzio Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I got that same boxset myself to make. Will be watching this with a lot of interest. I remember when I opened the box for the first time and looked at the sprue for the MiG and just thought "is that it?!", but you can't fault the quality of it. mrvr6 : a lot of patience and little pieces of masking tape! Kind Regards, Dazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintsPhil Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks chaps, lovely little kits...that include...canopy masks!! Still mighty fiddly mind.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzio Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 i was afraid you were going to say that lol Yup, I remember doing the Puma... that nearly sent me batsh** crazy after I had finished masking that canopy up! Altho tbh, masking up the jets in 1/144 is no worse than doing an WWII fighter in 1/72, esp the Luftwaffe ones! But as Saints Phil has pointed out (and I had forgotten), the Eduard kits come with masks, so bit help for out sanity there Kind Regards, Dazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Robertson Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I love the look of these kits, they've been fondled on several occasions in my local model shop. I might actually have to get a set now! Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
