shadowmare Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) Trumpeter MiG-3 with Part set, resin exhausts and Montex masks. Inscription on the side means "For the motherland". Nice kit with, surprisingly, no major errors. I improved few things like a propeller blades - awfully thick in the kit. As a support for photos I used old cigarette case from Soviet Union when Saint Petersburg was a Leningrad. For Poland where I live, it was a dark and hard time. May it never come back.

shadowmare Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Thanks guys! Nice build! What is your opinion about the Part parts? Regards - dutik Thanks! Part sets are good but without paint so you must do it by yourself. Sometimes it's better option than Eduard because they often use wrong colors for their photoetched parts. dutik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Very nice job on a not-too-common subject. The MiG-3 has always interested me because I like its looks but it's one of the rare aircraft that broke the old aviation rule: "if it looks good it will fly good." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_MiG-3 shadowmare and Bill Cross 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
