First test-build of the MiG-21Bis !


I'm not fully happy with it. It may have been my clumsiness with marking the folds but I had issues with the canopy/spine junction. At least the camo aligns mostly properly.



The build started with an accident. I cut the central fuselage into 3 bits. Oops! You can see the main cut on the left side (that very visible white line).


I have a second example in metal livery and generic soviet markings that I'll probably build tomorrow before I decide if it can be released. And this time, all parts go in the tin box after cutting. No more accidents like today's!


The last 2 pics show it with an Angolan MiG-21MF.
