Just finished up Trumpeter's 1/32 Mig-21MF. Cut my own masks which will be available in 1/32 and 1/48 shortly.







Hope you like her!

Great work on the paint scheme Jeff, I have not seen that one before. What did you think of the Trumpeter kit.

Hi Tim,

Compared to the Revell kit, this was much nicer, but that being said, there's still some minor issues that I wasn't happy with...the tail assembly is glued to the top of the fuselage, so make sure your wings and elevators are in place before you glue the tail, to ensure everything is straight. The cockpit is quite nice straight from the box, but you'll need a new bang-seat. I used a KM-1 from True Details (IIRC). Make sure you open the pylon positions before you close the wing halves...DOH!

Thanks for the kind words folks...here's the actual aircraft, btw...In comparing the actual aircraft against the model I realized that I didn't make the stencils tight enough...but I'm not going to worry about it at this point.
