ulvdemon Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I am in the process of building Revell's Mig-21PF for a work competition. Needs to be completed by end of September. Currently have the cockpit completed, which is Aerobonus Mig-21PFM pilot provided by Pep from here, thank you. Enjoy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LanceR21 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Nice ! I suggest to you to put decals in the cockpit, instead of painting gauges and instruments. It will look much better ! Keep working ! Cheers, Nenad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulvdemon Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Thanks for the compliment LancerR21. Unfortunately, I am going to have to repaint it, since this kit doesn't have decals for the side console. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulvdemon Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Sub assemblies coming along faster than I expected. Such a difference in seat height with the Aerobonus seat vs. the kit seat. Look's like the pilot is a midget, even when I angled the cockpit to raise it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulvdemon Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Sub Assemblies: Which one to use: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LanceR21 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Great progress so far ! Use right one, it's for F-13/PF/FL, left is for later versions, PFM/SPS/M/MF... Cheers, Nenad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulvdemon Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) This is why I am debating on the wide chord tail. These two pictures of a late build PF's. Top one from the Mig-21 Osprey book, the bottom image is from Squadron Signal part 1 walk around. Go figure! :o/> Edited August 4, 2015 by ulvdemon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LanceR21 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Yes, some of them were experimental version at the start. Which camouflage and markings are you going to apply on this kit ? That will help and I'll send to you pictures that I have in my collection... Cheers, Nenad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulvdemon Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Going with a natural metal finish, eas planning on doing the red invasion stripes... just to see if I can do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulvdemon Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 Went ahead with the wide chord tail. I believe the model is on clearance at Michael's down the street from my house so if need be I can pick up another one.... or save some pennies and pick up one by Eduard's. I also went ahead and attached the wings plus the dorsal hump and canopy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
