Thanks for nice comments!
fun facts:
@Romain: Two weeks ago I saw your Mirage III and decided I have to build another MiG-21, this time as a silverbird .. and yes, I'll try a used look.
Bernhard said, ok, you have now so many colorfull MiGs, but a silver one is missing.

So I have no choice.

I'm glad that it inspired you for another build 😄 Quick question where did you find your decals for all these MiG-21? Is it custom ? Because I also have this kit in my stash, but I haven't found a livery that suits me. Your 3-tons paint job is inspiring, but aftermarket decal sheets are rare for this bird.

Hi Romain,
for building a PFS you need a PF and a PFM. The PFS has the SPS-System (other flaps). See also differences between „27" and „59". The decals came from Kit (red stars), the little Numbers at the fin are from a Begemont-set with numbers in different sizes and colours. The Badge at the front (good maintenance) is from Modelsvit Fitter. The large number "17" is masked and sprayed.
The other models are very similar. The PF "27" is a little different. The blue number ist also masked and sprayed. The white outline is from a decal-set for MiG-31, I believe it came from Begemont too.

.. and for a PFS don't forget the break chute container in the fin base, see wip pictures from „59".

The camo is so great! Also the chippings added tons of details to the surface. What a great job and inspiration! You know, I just added this kit to my cart!
