I didn't notice the subtle change in the canopy but indeed it's not the same as the first version. I'll need to do the same.

Mod 3 has evolved into mod 3a and currently looks like this:



- closed the nose but didn't remove the part that goes inside yet in case the the disc is too wide.
- represented the holes for the wing spar and added the pseudo wing spar I use on the MiG-17.
- modified the wing fences again to make one side a full grey rectangle and avoid misaligment when cutting them out.

I didn't get it at the time I was repairing that version, I thought you're talking about the wingfence with a flat bottom couldn't fix on bulged wing. sorry for my terrible comprehending. 😂

We're both ESL speakers here !

I was refering to this.



top = original version used on the Vietnamese example
bottom = new version used on the iraqi one

That's in the cards but it will be a simple version like the ones I did for the MiG-15 & MiG-17.

Thanks for sharing, just add this new tail to replace the old one.

Mod 3b has the latest revisions from your model's fuselage :
- nose landing gear door
- disc to close the nose (mine was indeed slightly bigger
- revised canopy

Thank you very much Xiaoyang and Cafe:
The modifications certainly would improve the look of the model.
Are you planning to do a recolor of the Soviet and maybe the Pakistani planes.
Very much appreciated the modifications.

I buid the majority of version of Shenyang J-6 (Cafe & Xiaoyang) and all of them looks like a Sukhoi 6!! Lacking is ventral spine and the nose must be made in two parts, being frontest part conical.
