Plastikschrottler Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Thanks for the In Progress pics. Looks like some effort, but the result certainly justified it. Cheers, Joerg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Dyck Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 That really stands out of the crowd, a fantastic job on this one. I also thought it is in 1/48. weathering and fading of the colours is proffessional. Whooow! Alll the best Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Hothersall Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Nice build. With th the many MiG-21s I've built, I've overlooked the Warsaw Pact countries a bit, so I should build a few Czech, Hungarian, polish etc ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Ryan - the reason I chose the Hungarian one is the possibility to display it on a grass surface (a project for a later date). Hungarians had semi-annual summer excursions of about a week to predetermined grass airfields near their main bases. Soviet air forces based in-country did the same.

alxzinbox Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Amazing build Jay! Always a pleasure to see the venerable MiG-21 in 72nd and that too with such finesse. Your paint-job is marvellous, as is the detailing of the rivets and panel lines. The kit does look more the part with the beefed up exhaust too. Good catch on that one. The open cockpit is also just wow! The perfect end to 2016 for you! All the very best to you in 2017, and looking forward to all the models to come off your bench! Cheers, Alex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booty003 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Perfect, flawless work Jay. The finish is outstanding and you have done a great job of the photography. Phil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
