Global Scale Modeller

My MiG-21R is complete and I'm relatively happy with it. I think it looks good in the base, and I'm glad I learnt a lot about doing freehand camo which can be found in the build thread here: http://www.intscalemodeller.com/viewtop ... 04&t=13500

I was going for a beat-up and worn-down aircraft, but I probably did go a little overboard on the chipping!

I've taken part in a few SIGs on ISM now, and really enjoy then. It's great to build on a theme, and maybe do something you wouldn't otherwise build. I also learn so much from other build threads - I don't always comment, but I do follow them, and the quality of work is amazing Anyway, enough rambling, here are the final photos...

Thats a beautiful build, love the paintwork, this is one kit I'm itching to build myself.

excellent job

Sensational! I hope mine turns out as good as yours.

She looks great !! Well Done

Outstanding work! she's a stunner. You should be proud of this, everything is spot on, good job buddy!

Thanks for your kind comments, guys. This really was a great kit, and I wouldn't mind building another one, especially with all the cool markings Eduard have for the MiG-21. Another kit I felt like this about was the Hobby Boss 1/48 Me 262 - a wonderful kit to build for only about £15.

Superb finish Ads! Love the MiG-21!

A beautiful bird!

Exceptionally cool pice bud. Nicely done.

Really nice job.

Amazing job. Love the chipping!
