RKic Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I was trying to rehabilitate my Airfix Mig earlier this week when I snapped the canopy. The local shop was selling them cheap, so I picked up a fresh one. I have enough hodgepodge decals to build a Polish Lim, so I may do that, or I might do he Korean bird in the box. I may go Hungarian, but most likely not. I'm still practicing 3-tone camo. Can't decide, so I'll leave it to the crowd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck1945 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I know you said Hungarian was not a primary contender, but it is more unusual, so I voted for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 41 visits and 6 votes? I know a lot of people on ARC can't be bothered with airfix kits, but c'mon, how much effort does it take to push the vote button? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Moore Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I went with other. Something African maybe? Cheers, Alby Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RKic Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Those voting other, can you send me links to decal sheets you might be thinking of? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
McCoy Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I voted for the Hungarian as I fancy the more odd examples out there... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anotherP51nut Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Normally I would say Polish, but some of the Middle Eastern or African camo schemes would help to disguise some the shape issues on the Airfix kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raymond Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 camo iraqi: sand/green? have to put decals together from other sources Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Looks like Hungarian got the most votes, so Hungarian it is. I'll be starting probably at the beginning of February, as I've got a project close to finishing, which I want to get off of the bench first. P-51nut, what are the shape issues?

RKic Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 phew. The last time I updated this thread was on Janauary 25th. Though to be honest, this GB hasn't been as lively as the previous airfix and matchbox builds (what gives folks?) I made some good progress on the kit over the last few days. The only changes I made was to add a tail fillet, and modified the big solid HUD by cutting it back to its edges Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 ...and with paint. I decided to build the North Korean version afterall. I used Vallejo colors, I'm not sure I like their shade of sand yellow. No worries though, it is what it is Quote Link to post Share on other sites
