Here are 2 pics of my old build of Vladimir's Ye-8. I've changed the main landing gear since then. You may recognize the bottom pic as the original that was modified to depict the Ye-10.

Yes I see now, The Ye-10 I saw is a photoshop result, not a prototype that was built. You have built that bird so beautiful.

Thanks for the share.

Here is my contribution from the MiG lineage lineup. This model is beta tested and is vectorized version of Vladimir(Shifu65)'s Original design. He has given me permission to distribute them to all of you.

Thanks.

I'll have a look when I'm home.

OK Carlos,
I made Analog version(Rawen and Paran's model modified by you) today. The model looks beautiful. Will share photos soon with other versions.

By the way, I also made the other variant of the Analog (with the straight leading edges). It's just that I never made the color scheme that goes with it.

Hello Carlos,
I don't recall any MiG model with a straight leading edge like that of F-104. I think your are trying to say "Trailing edge" . BTW, I have some snapshots to share. R&P+Carlos MiG 21 PF is under construction besides me.

Well, Mikoyan never actually built a Starfighter-like MiG-21 but they did some studies and produced a model with short wings à la F-104 and a T-tail.

Among the MiG-21 derivatives that didn't go farther than the drawing/scale model stage there were these 2 ground attack projects. I'd only seen the pictures of the models until now. One of them uses the MiG-21I wing.

I was actually talking about the wing you can see on the underside view here (the top view has the regular shape with curved leading edges).
