Recommended Posts

Hi guys…

I purposely dedicate this build to Zactoman aka Chris because of the great work's on correction set…started discussion about this project a year with my best friend Mr. Shahid Ali….after all…he personally sent an email to Zactomodel and made an order almost complete set of Zactomodel product related to 1/32 Miggy….because of the pride of our Royal Malaysia Airforce…..we also add a CAM, Eduard, Scalenutz decals, f4dables probe…all in list below….I’ll give my best to mix and match all the parts…hopefully can complete this build like what we want….

Here I share a pic’s of what I have in this build….

Place an Eduard PE on small louvered vent….the problem was PE over size and not in line with main louvered vent… so I can’t attach a zacto small bump to replace kit bump …

A minor modification needed …I’d to cut it out to make it parallel

DSC04345.jpg

DSC04346.jpg

trim it out...

DSC04347.jpg

Than I can replaced the kit bump with zacto resin….

Next the main louvered vent & structure….

As usual….cut it off…

Hi Naza,

As I can see you are all armed and well prepared to make this build so that it will be a real stunner. ;)

I'll be following with much interest.

BTW, Chris had cast new air intakes using my masters and yet he combined the air tunnel together with the intakes and cast them as one piece.

Cheers and happy modeling!

Started a cockpit with CAM….i can use full set of Eduard….but then….i decided to mix and match both…..

Hi Naza! Good to see you sharing your builds on ARC again!

As Alexander mentioned, it's unfortunate that you didn't get to use the new intake parts but it is still looking great! :thumbsup:

I'm curious to see how it looks with the refueling probe installed.

I was considering making one but decided I couldn't make it look right without heavily modifying the forward fuselage/LERX area.

As for cockpit edges on fuselage...i'll need a solution...input are welcome...
At this point since you've already added the photo-etch detail parts on the top of the cockpit edges, I'd skip modifying the parts as shown in my instructions by not adding the strip styrene to the fuselage or removing the extra material from the canopy edge.

You can still add the included resin part to the canopy and change the location of the back edge of the glass as shown in my instructions.

In the end the canopy will be a little beefier and the rear of the cockpit will be lower than they should be but I'm sure it will still look great.

:cheers:

Rom, Marcel111, geedubelyer,…thanks for following this build….appreciate it much….honestly…every times I post any wip in ARC….I’m nervous…

Hi Berkut….yes…my last post was in 2007…. if I’m not mistaken…..feeling great you still can recognize me…. :)

Zactoman….again…you did an awesome work on it Chris…. :worship: :worship: :worship:

You are absolutely right…forward fuselage look odd; thick….it’s so obvious with a probe attached…you might need to work on forward fuselage in future, not only for the probe…in my opinion that will make your resin nose match and suit to the whole frame…

In this build…I just try to rarefy at LERX area…..i can’t modified any further…..it’s a scary task…i'll attach a pic's progress in next post....

Master…thanks for viewing ya….;)

A big thanks to all....update time....

Update time….a few section had been done….not much different from the previous one…but I think I spend a lot of times to rescribe disappeared panel line that gone during sanding process…..final touch will needed before painting process….

Stabilizer….follow as zactomodel direction…
