opus999 Posted January 18 Posted January 18 MiG-15bis "Fagot" | HobbyBoss | 1/72 Pilot: Maj. K.I. Syomy, 535th IAP, 32nd IAD | North Korea | Spring 1952 Finished this on 11/14/2024. Here's another build that was 27 years in the making. I bought the Cutting Edge MiG-15bis "Fagots" decals, sheet 3 which had North Korea, Cambodia and Vietnam in about 1997. I really wanted to do this North Korean tiger stripe, which is why I bought it. Luckily, I haven't gotten around to it until now because I don't think I've really had the skills to do the paint job until the last couple of years. Paints were Mr. Color C023 green, C044 Tan and Midnight Blue (instead of black because all the black paint I have sprays terribly). Bottom was Tamiya silver leaf spray paint decanted. Hope you like it! Comments, Questions and constructive criticism always welcomed! 27 1 2

I'm really happy with it, though.
aidy Posted January 19 Posted January 19 That's some amazing airbrush skill, pulling this scheme off in 1/72. Very impressive indeed.
Dave Klaatu Posted January 19 Posted January 19 Beautiful build! Great airbrush skill! Very unusual camo.
