ForestFan Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Hi, here's a build I finished a month or so back, Hobby Boss kit, Pavla seat, El Presidente decals for a Ugandan AF machine. Unfortunately I didn't put anywhere near enough nose weight in.....Hope it's of interest 20210829_170940 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 20210829_172642 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 20210829_173318 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 20210829_173324 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 20210829_173340 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 20210829_173410 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 20210829_173452 by bryn robinson, on Flickr 38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rib Man Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 That is a really cool paint scheme that we don't see very ofter. Well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 addition: regarding the noseweight... not sure if there actually is enough room for sufficient nsoeweight! maybe if you leave out the engine... I had to put a nut afterward into the intake on mine as well... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kampartiger Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Something different out of Africa and it's really nice. It seems the Ugandan's Frescos camo is very similar to the Israeli supplied Magisters trainers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wulfman Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Great work on the MiG, Ugandan MiGs were reconditioned in Israel, hence the Israeli camouflage. Wulfman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
