patjb Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Wow a master of BMF and three colour camouflage! If I had a hat on I would take it off to you, they look great and 1/72 as well, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 As everyone has already said, a cracking pair, clearly you can do natural metal or multi-colour camouflage equaly well. Inspirational stuff for the forthcoming Group Build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pavolSK Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) Many thanks for your appreciation, guys! The first camouflaged fishbed is armed with a pair of missiles S-24 on the APU-68 adaptors (RV Armament set) and a pair of PTB-100 bombs (from the HB kit of Mi-24). The external fuel tank is reused from the old KP kit. Edited September 10, 2013 by pavolSK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pavolSK Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Thank you Glenn! The second fishbed "blue 60" is armed with the imitation of tactical A-bomb IAP-500 (RV Armament), a pair of SPRD-99 RATO bottles (Zvezda kit MiG-21bis). A pair of external fuel tanks is reused from the old KP kit. Pavol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanSAR95 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Gorgeous models. I love the silver fishbed, it looks smudged with oil in places and messy, in the best possible way, making it look well used and very authentic. It wouldn't look half as good clean and showroom quality, after all,they were used jets. Very nice. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
