Amen Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) good progress! What kit is this second MiG? Do you always build in-flight models? I must admit, seeing the birds in two-ship formations looks rather great. I'm glad you like it Sebastijan! Yea i try to build my most models in flight so they can have more tolerance in handling(gears break easy).I also like em more that way because you can see the real siluette of the planes.I also try to pair them in formations. Mig-21 bis is revell kit (diagostini) rebox from matchbox.Molds are matchbox http://www.matchboxkits.org/product_info.php?products_id=54 Edited April 28, 2012 by Amen Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Helo 53 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I've often had to retouch the camouflage patten after removing the masks form my builds . Sometimes I forget to allow for the thickness of the strip of rolled blu-tac and the patten is slightly too small in a couple of sections . It's a little annoying when it happens and I alway's get a little cranky with myself but it just a matter of re-masking a few area's and airbrushing a few extra coats of paint . Your builds are looking great Amen . John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amen Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) So im not the only having hard times with it :) 1st time i used the blue tack technique went terrific.(on f-23) On this jag i have failed It needs practice practice practice,thin strips and vertical airbrushing :D Edited May 4, 2012 by Amen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
