Allen, the title is correct but the body of your text is off. Replace Century Series with Mischievous Migs and its all good. Thanks, "Q"
ps. Happy New Year!

Mig-31 is almost finished..


Basically just some decalling and clean up to do. I don't know if I could recommend this kit as it is a bit rough and ready in places with very large gaps evident.
Cheers

Wow!! That was fast, Warren. Nice clean build. Maybe a light wash to bring out the panel lines. No weapon stores? It looks a little naked
I have not even started yet. I am considering buying the Academy MiG-29AS in Slovak digital camouflage. Otherwise a WWII MiG-3.

OK! Warren, so what if you can throw an open bottle of glue into a box shake and minutes later have this come out

Nice job, what is your next build for the campaign I want to time you so let me have the starting time.

LOL.. No washes for this one, and I will give you the starting time soon Bob. I have seen many photos of Mig-31s and not many have stores on board, so I decided to leave them off even though I built them and painted them.

You mentioned washes etc, this model has nice, deep trenches already, just that the flash washed them out. I will upload another picture or two when my internet is back up to speed. It seems to travel slower having to travel underwater..

No problem. You just gave me the perfect excuse to buy the Academy Slovak MiG-29.
It will be a daunting task to add the camouflage as decals. See more
HERE Luckily it is cartograph decals and not Academys own decals.

Ayhan, another beautiful build. The colors look great as well as the glossy finish. Nice work.
Jesper, if you can pull off that digital camo scheme you will be my new hero. Looking forward to seeing that stunning bird.
