Sebastijan Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Dragan, are you sure about the black headrest on the seat? The most I've seen were grey Edited December 23, 2009 by Sebastijan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dragan_mig31 Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 Dragan, are you sure about the black headrest on the seat? The most I've seen were grey yes i'am.all JRV migs had black or leather/brown headrests.so i could not find a pic of this particular AC but a guy that worked on this mig for 10 + years told me that if i paint it black or leather/brown i wont make a mistake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 this one's grey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 and this one looks grey/dk brown... looks like they used multiple colours... are you scratching the double R60 launcher? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janman Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Dragan's right. The headrest can be black as well and if I remember correctly, the Finnish bis I once photographed also had a black one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dragan_mig31 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 well i will not scratch the r-60 double launchers becouse i have some spares from a zvezda mig-23 MLD.those are already painted.i will scratch the r-3r rockerts theese days.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Piotrek.S. Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 (edited) Hi Some Polish MiGs-21 and AFIK MiGs-23 had all black KM-1 seats. Grey coloured seat had browny headrest. But as I mentioned whole seats were black not only headrests. Edited December 26, 2009 by Piotrek.S. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sebastijan Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 WoW! The wash you did is absolutely great! Subtle enough to just show the panel lines and not making the aircraft look like a toy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
