Re: Eduard Mig-21bis 1:48 FAF
HELL YEAH! One of the sexiest planes of GDR is coming alive (in the Finnish version
). Cant get enough of a good old MiG 21.

Re: Eduard Mig-21bis 1:48 FAF
Has gone some "days" since my previous update... however, pretty much has been ongoing on the project side...
Some stuff still to be finalised, but this is more or a less three moments of the build that has been carried out since Christmas..
First some primer, coincidence it happened to have more or a less same color as the basic Finnish air force "green" (FS14062).

After camo, decals attached. I skipped most of the stencils. as compared with the real ones, in my opinion the stencils are way too big..

Just a close-up of the front wheel.

I had first planned to use AM parts for the wheels, but eventually did not and therefore this project is entirely an OOB.
Will save the stuff for a new Mig-21 project in near future I hope.
Still some details to be added / adjusted, but with this speed I should be ready by February..

Re: Eduard Mig-21bis 1:48 FAF
Great camo job Kari. I agree, Eduard's stencils are crap, especially in their Weekend kits. Begmont is a great AM decal company if you are ever interested. They have specific stencil sheets for Mig 21s.

LOVE those Finnish MiGs! Shaping up very nicely.
I am a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, smothered in Canadian bacon.
