Thanks. I'm trying a new 5 segment canopy.

/back to Inkscape.

Going further away from Belgium (about the furthest I can go), after Australia and the A-4G (the latter version needed some corrections), here come the A-4K from New Zealand. Haven't done the 3-tone integral scheme yet.

Congrats on the Mirage build. It looks nice and clean!

Meanwhile I've tested a new twin-sear canopy. The result is better than what I expected (usually when I design that kind of canopy they tend to end up looking like bananas).

Now I can finish this model as the F-16B block 10 it's supposed to be (as per page 21 and later of Le Canon de Kra) or go into fanfic territory and turn it into a spine-equipped F-16D block 32. Since the new canopy is 1 mm longer (which was intended), I'll have to shorten the front of the spine.

(ah wrong profile! the other side of the canopy looks better)

edit: And the colors are too dark and too blue.

I was already trying to find out from which country this plane came before reading the text.
"The Canon of Kra" explains the roundels.

Ages ago I made the rebel F-5A from the same album (but didn't build it). I had to do the actual Air Force F-16s. And there's still a HH-3F to recolor.

Great profiles Bruno and also Carlos. A-4 tree is growing nicely fast

I tried to recolor two more Mig-21. I am still recoloring with Gimp so there is this problem while rescaling. From 1/200 to 1/300 it blured the lines and this made it more difficult for me to recolor it like I did with Bruno's models, that are already in 1/300.
Also I am still learning how to recolor so I apologize for any mistakes.

They look great.

Here is a pdf of blank MiG-21U/US/UM in 1:300.

eta 2: adding also the second gen single-seaters

Thank you very much.

Thanks for the Migs guys, very kind.

Would somebody be crazy enough to gather all the recolors in this thread and put them in the download section?
There are hundreds of them if not over a thousand (not including the originals)
