cabo91 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I'm currently finishing an Iraqi Mig-23 (Same kit as you).... Did you scribe a line for the shortened radome or did you just paint the radome shorter? Steven Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan Hothersall Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Nice, can't go wrong with a nice desert camo. Were the decals from the Iraqi fighters sheet from linden hill?. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vesthepes Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Thanks for your comments, I'm very glad you like it. Steven I scribed the line across the radom, although there is no need, barely visible...The part I disliked correcting the most was the dual dampers by the hinges on the vertical rudder which had to be removed- filled with plastic and putty +sanded & scribed. Also take caution with the wings assembly - I don't like how they move, I must have placed something wrong inside?! Yes Ryan, the decals are Iraqi fighters by Lindenhill Edited February 11, 2014 by vesthepes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
