1:48 MiG-17 "Fresco C"Posted: Friday, September 18, 2009 - 11:18 PM UTC
Oliver Peissl (Erlawerke) has sent us images of his superb 1:48 scale MiG-17 "Fresco C" model. Oliver has finished the excellent Hobby Boss kit in the camouflage and markings of a machine used by the Egyptians during the Six Days War in 1967.

The -17 isn't my favorite MiG, but this one looks fantastic. The finish is outstanding.
