Finished Mig-29 (with pics!!)

Modeling Subjects Aircraft

Hi guys,[8D]

Here’s my 1/72 Hasegawa Mig-29 Fulcrum.
From the Russian Air force, handpainted in Humbrol colours (127 & 31).
Nice model to build, but the K-36 seat is really bad, I replaced it by a sparse Heller one from a Mig-29 UB.
Fine engraved panel lines. I only need to give it a satin coat, as soon as I have an airbrush ( or can it be done by hand? Does anyone know?)
To give it a nicer finish and to seal of the decals.

All comments welcome!

Cheers,

Jürgen[}:)]

Take care,

Looks good Jurgen!
For satin coat better use the airbrush or a spray can.

Pretty darn good build. A few crticisms however, the 2 grey panels, the rear one is WAY oversize. Also, it should match the panel lines and a have a sharply defined outline. One last thing, your rear canopy doesn’t quite match with the front one. Like I said before, nice build. (The grey panel problem is easily fixable.)

Great job!

Looks pretty good to me. An aerosol can of flat clear would be an easy way to get the flat finish. You probably should spray some on a scrap test piece of the same paint to insure compatibility before risking the entire model.
