SaintsPhil Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Looking good so far, these kits look really nice, if it wasn't for the Eduard 1/48 kits I'd have bought a few I think! What's the paint you used for the pit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintsPhil Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Thanks for that I will take a look at that! and keep an eye on the rest of your build! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngstROM Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Excellent work so far: RV have some cool subjects, the MiG-23UB is tempting... MR. Paint also have a website: http://mrpaint.sk/. The interior turquoise looks to be the best colour for this application, nothing else ready-made comes close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blasi Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 Prepared wings. Not ready. There is need to attach some resin parts on the end of the wings.

Natter Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 I'm glad there are other items in the photos for size reference, otherwise it would be hard to believe this is a 1/72 model. That cockpit is especially impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomjw Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Coming along nicely. The detail in that cockpit is amazing. Cheers, Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintsPhil Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) Brilliant work. I ordered some Mr Paint, it's great stuff. With the Metalics did you have to put a gloss black base down or did you just spray it over the base you had in the photos?

Borisz Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I... Just... uhhh, don't have words for this outstandind work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amen Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Very nice build. Congrats to you for the build and Mr Radek from R.V. for the kit! I'm only afraid that the color is too shiny for mig-21. What do you think? Didn't those planes had a more dull metal surface?
