Does it need to have Soviet markings? I have a Mig-21PF that I want to do in North Vietnamese but I can always get another and make it Soviet instead.

I wonder if Yak face might need some guidance with this one

It does say in the intro post "all Nations" As long as the aircraft is a Russian built/licensed it will be ok. It doesn't have to be an aeroplane either. Some very nice egg beaters out there as well.

Are you telling a support engineer to RTFM? I'm outraged! Although, I did realise that I probably ought to have read it before posting after the fact


Still, I think I shall be doing this one with aforementioned Eduard 1/48 Mig 21-PF. Build post to follow soon - now for the tricky part - negotiating some non-DIY weekends with the wife - I mean, the front door is still there so does it really need painting? (yes)

 

[PaulTRose]

looking forward to this......going to do something i could never afford when i was a nipper

 

[yak face]

I think i might join in on this one ! Im sure ive got something suitable in the stash , although ive not got many to choose from , only about 30 or so !!? Cheers tony

 

[rickoshea52]

I have too much on to join in, pity as I have three Mig-21's and a Mil-17 I'm keen to build sooner rather than later.


I could have done this scheme - http://www.fast-air.co.uk/qinetiq-boscombe-down-mi-17-project-curium/ for the raspberry ripple SIG!
