1/32 Trumpeter Mig-19 Farmer C

[David Mooney 556]

I picked this up a fair way back at Telford IPMS show and thought it would be an interesting subject to cover. The thing that got me was the shape of the wings on this aircraft, I really liked the overall shape and look to this. Its a very nice kit and goes together well, but has some rather unique ways of constuction. Overall a very good kit and the decals went down very well as well. Its been built out of the box and the only extras was the seat belts I made from Tamiya tape. Finished in Humbrol paints and with kits decals, I think it turned out not to shabby in the end so I hope you like it. All comments or questions are welcome :-)

That looks fantastic, David! Love the dirty silver finish, and the outside shots on the base look really convincing. May I publish it on the website?

David,

 

Very nice work! You've given me a new appreciation for the lines of this aircraft, and how did you train the bird to appear in your photo? 😊

 

Cheers, Tom

[Shawn M 9,183]

[r0t0rdr1ver 816]

Very nicely done indeed David! Take a bow sir!

[Thunda 541]

Really amazing NMF- looks real!

[Chek 1,758]

Looks very good, and the metal finish suits the subject.

 

I've always found the semi-agricultural, beaten-up-by-ground-crew look of early MiGs appealing, and your model captures the look.

Great Looking MIG David.  The finish is most appealing to the eye and looks to be a typical weathered operational beast ready for the next flight.   

Well done mate.

The MiG-19 is a unique aircraft, no doubt about it. The shape is unduplicated.

 

You did a great job on this kit! Great twilight photos - very real!

 

I would love to hear what the vagaries of construction were to which you alluded.

[joe 767]

That's a great job on the Mig.

Nice and dirty finish on the NMF.

It looks great.
