Urban, I'm using the Model Master 2135 for the cockpit colour

5X0 is the smallest I have...If I go easy on the caffeine it usually works...

Nice job Augie, Looks very realisitic. I am kind of a cockpit freak I think I spend more time on the cockpit than any other part of the model. I use a 0/0 brush and toothpicks. they work very nice.

Whatever works is the way to go. I have been working on my seasprite, I had to quit for the day before it becomes a supersonic missle!!!!!

Awesome! Are the real ones that same color in the cockpit? It's such a weird color for a cockpit

I don't usually build Russian aircraft so I'm used to the greens and greys of pretty much everything else. But It is cool 🙂

"Calming" I don't think a color will do much when you're engaged in a dogfight or a missile is locked on you

The Montana Air National Guard painted the cockpits and seats of their F-106s the same color, They looked neat.

Augie, How did you get the interior color? Did you mix it or can you get it pre-mixed. I have a lot of Migs to build.

Hi Clifford, Its a pre-mix.
Model master 2135 Russian Interior Blue/Green

Looking good Augie. The SeaSprite got the rest of her decals today and has wheels.

What size brush do you use for the base coat? I use a 1/2 inch brush and it sometimes leaves lines in the paint. I'm going to my Lhs later and I'll get some more brushes

I dont base coat, I paint the cammo pattern color at a time.
That one was done with a Tamiya No.0 (87015) Item brush

I am a fan of brush paint, well done! How was the building, is the Revell kit nice? I am looking fo an 1:48 version, Revell does not have the Russian Decals, but that is a minor problem, is it recommendable kit?

Hi Melf,
thanks very much 🙂 It is the revel kit, with decals from the spares box.
It builds ok, but there are some gotcha's in the build.

You mean some fitting adjustment with putty- as nasty as in cricket the so called "inswinging yorker"? Tell me about it

the fit is ok, long as your careful. the only real downside is the intakes are a little sparse so you might want to putty it and smooth it out that way.
