Title: MiG-21 Eduard 1/48
Post by: No.1 on March 18, 2011, 03:32:59 PM: Here we are!

After long time waiting finally I have kit of the MiG-21, one of the most famous cold war fighter plane delivered and operated in great number of countries. Kit is excellent mold and pack contain great number of parts. What I like is that they have doubled some part, for example first image show instrument panel basic part and you have in box full detailed part for the future weekend edition and you have flat one, designed to be used with etched parts.

Any suggestion?

Post by: Second Air Force on March 18, 2011, 04:56:31 PM: Could the WWII Japanese Navy interior color be lightened somewhat to this shade? The IJN color is somewhat metallic in the tin that I have, however.

Post by: Sall on March 18, 2011, 06:17:01 PM: Well,i use MM 2135.Maybe you can use that color and add few drops of blue or green,and you will hit right shade. :-roll :-think
Title: Re: MiG-21 Eduard 1/48
Post by: No.1 on March 18, 2011, 06:23:06 PM: I have no Model Master Authentic no 2135 so I will have to make some mix...

Post by: draken35 on March 20, 2011, 03:30:51 PM: Great work my friend!
For myself, I will order for the color recommended by Eduard (Gunze): with the Tamiya acrylics, Gunze is my preferred paint...
Title: Re: MiG-21 Eduard 1/48
Post by: No.1 on March 20, 2011, 03:47:06 PM: To regret I did not react in time so I did not have Gunze but next time will be better prepared. Next set of images and my great impression that kit is assembled by it self- very good engineering work on parts :-obey
