Creation of this plane (and few others) is covered nicely in 2013 anime film "The Wind Rises". Flights of early gull winged prototype are very beautiful drawn.
Very nice model Pericles.Good work. |

Resuming our dear Scissors and Planes models, I restart the pace of construction with MiG-15 repainted by my friends Brent and Rata, with them I start a new collection of MiG-15, which is pointed out in my initial intentions when I made this topic at the beginning March 2018. The other two are a MiG-9 that I repainted (and needs alignment test) and one of Bruno's brand new models on top of a classic: The Bell UH-1 Huey in FAB colors that I added details to the original livery.

That old proverb 'idle hands are the devil's tools' would never apply to you Péricles! You certainly keep yourself busy mate.

This proverb makes sense in Brazil, it has another variation: "empty mind, devil's workshop", but that's it, I always try to keep myself busy. Modeling saved me in the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to save me from everything...

The Return of Scissors
Hello friends!
It's been a long time since I posted a step by step here, so again we are showing the construction of two MiG-15s, one is Brent's excellent repaint and the other is a repaint/conversion made by Rata especially for me of the MiG-15UTI from Mozambican Air Force. These models are based on Bruno's second generation models Catalog Number 202. The only modification I will make is to volumetric the air intakes and exhausts, the first being with its diffuser. In the case of these parts I used them from Bruno's new MiG-15 model. All the main pieces were cut and the tabs as usual were cut and glued behind each piece, on this occasion I used PVA paint in the selected colors to remove the white corners. Another custom kept is to laminate the internal reinforcements of the wings I prefer them more rigid because the glue I do to create the wing rope needs to be quite resistant. Note the cutters I use in this two projects... |

Continue the MiG-15 Build...
We started the construction of all the wing and tail surfaces of the two MiG-15s, the method is the same as always: bending the pieces with a metal rod observing the correct shape of the wing section facing with a high density EVA plate. . After gluing all these pieces we started to prepare the tabs of all the fuselage sections by perforating them, after forming each section we used cross clamps to help in the pressure and drying of each piece.
P.S. Note the air intakes pieces from new Bruno's MiG-15... Continue... |
