RocketSurgeon Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) After a long break I finally made a start on this one. I had this kit in my stash for nearly a year now. AMK's giant Mig is an absolutely beautiful kit. I'm building it OOB, gears up and refueling probe extended as it would appear lining up behind a tanker. I used AKAN 73005 for the interior. I'm not really satisfied with how the pit came out, but not much will be visible once the canopy is closed. Cockpit in place. I still have to finish the instrument panels and seats. After some careful dry fitting, the gear doors closed up beautifully even though they were designed to be built in the open position. I tried to simulate carbon deposits on the exhaust. This is where I'm at with the beast at the moment. Thanks for looking. Edited December 19, 2016 by N5016R spell check 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempestwulf Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Fantastic work so far, you honestly couldn't tell the gear doors weren't moulded separately in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketSurgeon Posted December 27, 2016 Author Share Posted December 27, 2016 Thank you guys! Tiny update on the cockpit. I painted the instrument panels. Normally I'd add decals to the dials, but again, not much will be visible once the canopy is in place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
