I’m doing a J-7e, which is a Chinese fighter derived from the Mig-21 for the Demonstration group build. The J7e looks like a longer Mig21 with a cranked delta wing, planning to do PLAAF demo team colors. Does this fit into the rules? Am I cheating?
Well, that’s OK I guess… but it would be bettr if you could do a mig-21 in Chinese colors. but the j7 is fine.(i would prefer an actual mig, but if you’ve nothing else, the j7 will be perfectly fine) yay. 5 of us now.
I got a Tamiya 1/72 Mig-29 that I can put in Indian Air Force markings. [:)] Plus this will give me practice for putting one in Peruvian Air Force Colors! [8D] I’ll have a couple of kits done by then - WOW, more than 4 kits done this year! I haven’t built this many in a year since before high school![:0]
that patch is looking pretty good. lodni_k what kit are you doing? and in what airforce scheme? i couldn’t quite make out from your post. (i thought i would be the only IAF mig-29. guess not.[:D]) also waikong, thanks a lot for the patch. could you put some pictures of othermigs in other airforces to? please? really please? like different model mig w/ other AF’s. so this way the GB could have more than one badge…
For the badge, you can just right click on the picture and then save it to your own server. This way you can resize it to be smaller or bigger if you wish. If you just want to use it as it and reference my original, you can use this URL…
Just make sure you right click on the image and then click property to get real file name, as the upload process resizes and renames the file. I’ll provide the updated link once its moved to its final place
Well, I had no idea it was so hard to find info on 29’s used by different countries![:O]
It’s no problem finding WHO used em, but pics of this lovely bird (which I think the F18 was partially modelled on!) in foreign livery aren’t exactly falling from the sky…
