Uncarina Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Did I ever mentioned that radome is slightly undersized in diameter and it's cross section is not circular therefore the whole front end suffers this undernourished / pointy look. Don't be scared , I won't tell anyone. Martin, How does the "K" offering compare? Cheers, Tom mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) You are a wizard with putty, Martin! Thank You Ray, we will see about that Martin, How does the "K" offering compare? Cheers, Tom Hello Tom, "K" is slightly different airframe, with different lerx, chord, wings etc. So it is very hard to compare the two, however the canopy section seems to be closer to the real thing on K. I will snap more pictures soon, to demonstrate the differences. We need an update Martin! Lol, he's also very much 'right handed'.... Sorry Guys, I was busy bee with my right hand and slightly neglected updates . I started modifying the spine that is not round enough and flat enough at the rear, between the engines, also the spine is not just a straight line, instead had two point where it "brake" changes angle . what I did so fas was to heat the top section with boiling water and to push it down a bit. Then made to cuts in order to relieve the pressure of the bend. Next and most challenging step is going to be layering resin putty in order to build it all back up again and reshape it accordingly . I am not planning to blend the top of the nacelles also I'am not planning to change the non-circular front section....for now. There will be some pictures coming this week to demonstrate clearly what this all means Please have a patience with me, it should be worth it. Cheers .M.

Gazzas Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Although I admit to liking digital camo I have to wonder where they find the digital forests, and digital clouds to hide stuff in. ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyGT500 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Hi Martin you have a great build here. Well maybe I'm too late for this, but if you have same future builds of mig-29, a friend of mine build a detailed 29-s cockpit set from a resin. I saw it with my own eyes, and I can tell its 99 % accurate. If you interested here is the link: http://coldwarstudio.com/MiG-29%20A%20cockpit%2032.html and you can order this beautiful thing Cheers fella Dany Boy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyGT500 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Hi alain11 I do not want to spam the Martin's topic, but yes of course, the set is tested and fits perfectly in revell's kit Sorry Martin for the off-topic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Hi Alian, yes it is made for the Revell kit and no it does not fit to the new Trumpeter, unless you modify the shape of the fuselage. I believe that ColdWart Studios is planning a new set specifically for trumpeter's offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad that you guys are contemplating options and as I said before feel free to pitch in, comment and criticize. I appreciate sharing and suggestions.
