POWERSLAVE Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hi again One of my side by side project is this beauty,Mig-19S I had trumpy one ,but gave it as a present to my very good friend,and bought this one.The difference in quality you can see first time you open the box(2 times smaller than trump),but I have no problem with that On to the work! I don't know if this is a short run kit,but it look's like one. The fit is ok ( for me) ,sink marks only on the fairings of the horisontal stabs.I've put the resin cockpit,and a lot of weight in the nose,hope that will be enough, because the plastic is thick(2.5 and 3 mm on some areas ). PE sheet looks great ,but not using the whole freet.The time I fixed charger for my camera,I've glued major parts those yellow dots are stiren squares I used to fill the sink with hloroform so far ,the wheel well's are the only thing I have scratch-builded Any C & C?

Otto Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Hi guys I just joined. I have muliples of the HiPM MiG-19S kit and i like it better than the Trumpeter kit. It is much more accurate in outline and a lot more fun to build. YES it is quite a bit more work but that is what I like because I will like the results more. One thing I noticed about the kit pictures in this thread is that it has detail in the wheel-wells which none of mine have, and I have all the variants of the kit. Did you put the detail in your self or is that molded in. I noticed the ejector pin mark and mine is lacking that also. Otto Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Otto Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) i just discovered that in the last couple of weeks, "Pavla Models has come out with a wheelwell detail kit. I decided to just use the Eduard cockpit detail set but will also use the Pavla Wheelwell set also. The recommended 50g of nose mass I think is a bit much but about 35g is required. The hard part is finding a spot where to put it all. As a detail note; the cockpit color on the MiG-19 was a light gray for the Russian and Chinese built aircraft and a lite blue-gray on the Czech built aircraft almost identical, if not actually so, to RLM-76.
