Croatian MiG-21BisPosted: Sunday, August 24, 2008 - 09:10 PM UTC
Zafer Yilmaz is a new name in Aeroscale Features, but I certainly look forward to seeing more of his work! Here's his excellent Fujimi 1/72 scale MiG-21Bis in Croatian markings.

That's one mighty fine Fishbed. Great finish and weathering, and it's good to see some different (Croatian) markings, too. Overall, very nice work!

Hi there,
Indeed nice looking markings. However, even for a 1/72 Fishbed, the dorsal spine should have been a little more slim. This looks more like a BIS spine to me (Academy's fault seems to spread).
Fine weathering and paint. Was the bo intended for a Romanian Lancer C ??? Just curious!
