Antonov22 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Academy Mig-29A ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Benner Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Academy Mig-29A ? yes it is, my first Mig since I was 12ish or so. Normally, I wouldn't build a Mig, but Raymond and I have a deal .. he has to build a US plane and I have to do a Soviet plane. At least he's suffering with his Bronco as much as I am with this Mig .. :lol: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rampage55 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Benner, Looks like she's coming along nicely. I noticed the piece at the front of the vertical stabilizer along the wing root is not yet attached. Did the Iraqi MiG 29s have the chaff and flare dispensers there?

BjornB17 Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 nice progress on the mig!! I'm doing a mig-29UB, just got started on it today Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Benner Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 .. preshade done: closing the gear doors was a serious pain .. I've had enough of it and moved on to painting, I'm not going to see the underside again once it's in the display case Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rampage55 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Benner, Looking Good. What type of base are you planning on using? Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spike7451 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Nice work Benner! Are you going to make it more realistic & bury it in a sandpit? lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mark ... one of my cheap *** made up stands. you'll see Nice work Benner!Are you going to make it more realistic & bury it in a sandpit? lol ...well, that wouldn't be accurate for 1991 .. they didn't do that until 2003 B) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spike7451 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Dang old age!Could've sworn it was earlier... Still,who knows what he had buried back in 91. Tanks,weapons,the odd dissident here & there... I'll get my coat. TAXI! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Isn't that preshading a bit too obvious (could be the lightning though)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Benner Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 Isn't that preshading a bit too obvious (could be the lightning though)? I think you misunderstood me, that was just the preshade on the panel lines only. The main color hadn't been applied yet; here's the result so far: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 That's a whole different story... Yeah misunderstanding... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Benner Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 Hey Benner, that A-6E in the back ground looks pretty sweet.

Rampage55 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 ... getting there: Indeed. Your MiGs camo looks great and the preshading is brilliantly done. Cheers, Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Looks great! I think you nailed the colours... One question though - is the radom painted radome tan or is it unpainted resin replacement nose? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
