Part 2 of a 2 part series for the MiG-21 SM in 1/48 scale. The kit is Eduard #8231 and given the "MF" designation, but there are many decal options and Ive built the SM variant. MF was the export version while SM was kept at home for the Soviet Union. If you're living under a rock and havent already seen part 1 (the cockpit build) then click below:

Super well done paint work and weathering.

I am currently building the 1/48 PF, same construction and parts more or less, in my kit I have the exhaust as a separate part, another is also included that I wont be using. Great build! Mine is going to be silver

Designing the kit with a separate exhaust is a huge help. Best of luck on your build

Nice technique for the camouflage work . What i used to do for military equipment was to used masking tape , draw the pattern on the tape cut it with a X-ACTO knife and put the tape on the model and just paint over just like you’re doing

My fine tip paintbrushes are AK and MIG brands sizes 2/0, 3/0, and 5/0. The other larger brushes are cheaper brands from a local art store. My online shops are sprue brothers, megahobby, and eBay. Umm-usa also has some good materials. Let me know if there's a specific product I've used that you need the name of.

Nice build with super fine details.....congrats! Thanks for the beaut tips...painting and weathering the wheel bays before assembly, bending wire and the use of white glue towards the end. Will keep these in mind for future builds. BTW...Two things I really don't enjoy .... PE and rigging WW1 planes.

@ScaleModelAssassin 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks, glad you found it useful. I've never rigged more than a single antenna cable for the WWII planes but the WWI biplanes look like a test in patience

@@ScaleModelAssassin No truer words.....rigging is a real cause for frustration but ultimately it's worth it in the end.

Hi I also bought that assembly box and saw that for the Russian brown camouflage he used three different colors to make that color. While on the montage box she uses a simple supercolor with a unique tint she therefore believes that the colors written on the mounting box on the narrated. Send a tip. Thanks

@ScaleModelAssassin 4 жыл бұрын

The Gunze brown color in the instructions will work fine. I do not have that color and did not want to buy more colors so I mixed it with colors I already owned

does anyone know how much nose weight you actually need in this?

@ScaleModelAssassin Жыл бұрын

30g worked for me, but I don't know what the minimum would be. I think we're all too scared to get to the end of the build and realize we added too little. Wish they would have specified in the instructions.

@spookyno1401 Жыл бұрын

@@ScaleModelAssassin yeah I also saw one that put 15 and said that worked but, it is just so shitty of eduard not to say how much you need.

@savinglivesofourown 3 жыл бұрын

This kit sucks. I'm building it right now. Panel lines are almost non-existent. Serious fit issues. I might save the parts for kit bashing. You made it into something respectable though. That's why you're a legend model builder.

Haha thank you, I'm honored by use of the word legend.
