MiG-17F SMER 1/48 + resin cockpit


Recommended Posts

Hi,

This is the first time me building an aircraft in 1/48 scale. I'm really impressed with the space for detailing, even this kit is very old and simple. I'm very satisfied with the final result. I wanted to be simple, without rivets, more panel lines or anything like that, just OOB.

Decals are only from HobbyBoss kit. For me, this was good exercise for another Fresco in my collection!

Hope you like this bird!

Great job, what did you think of the SMER kit? I just completed one myself a few weeks ago, did yours have a lot of sink marks, in particular on the upper wing surface above the wheel bays?

Thank you guys!

Well, my opinion... this kit is actually good, every kit is if you put a little bit of effort, it just depends on you. For me, this build was enjoyable! Of course, I had problems on upper wing surfaces, lots of sink marks. So, sink marks and wing joints, two small problems on this kit... but that's just me, if I had money for HobbyBoss kit... always buy better, I'm a little bit of masochist when we are talking about plastic kits... ( I know, I'm crazy... :rolleyes: )

Cheers,

Nenad
