McMaster Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 I started this kit two years ago and for the best part of last year it was just sitting collecting dust,I just didn't feel like doing any work on it.I finally decided to get it done this month and here it is.No it didn't turn out as good as I hoped it would (I still got a lot of learining and improving ahead of me) but it could have been worse. Took these pics real quick with my phone hence the bad quality. 31
exdraken Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 really nice! hard to improve....! don't be so hard on yourself! 1
Sturmovik Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 I believe the model turned out really well. 1
CzarPeppers Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 I'm curious what colour you used for the grey (well... grey obviously, but you know what I mean), I plan on doing this kit when I get around to it.
Harry_the_Spider Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 What a brute of an aircraft! Looks pretty good to me. 1

I used RAL 7040 because that's what I had laying around.It's not the "official" colour that AMK recommends but to my eyes it looks about right.
invidia Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 great looking model, still have mine in the stash. might build it one day. 1
Duncan B Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Nothing wrong with that build, it looks great to me. Duncan B 1
General Jumbo Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Looks pretty darn good to me - I'd be well chuffed with that! 1
opus999 Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Everyone has more to learn... but I have to say that you clearly have learned a lot already! Very nice. 1
McMaster Posted October 12, 2018 Author Posted October 12, 2018 Thanks for all the kind comments guys! 😃
IGKent Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Good job! Looks fine! p.s. I would make other pics.......) 1
Abandoned Project Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 looks like a top notch model to me. 1
Booty003 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 That is a beauty, I think that you are being too harsh on yourself. Those burner cans are monstrous, you could park a car in there!! 1

Harold55 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 This model came out great! In my own case the only perfect model is the one in my mind before I start cutting parts off the sprue. Once that happens things are no longer perfect but it is still fun. In your case there may be flaws but they are not apparent from the pictures (which you also did a nice job on). Your MiG turned out very nice indeed. 1
