Guten Abend!
Ja, der Bausatz ist noch da. Ist neu und eingeschweißt.

Viele Grüße und alles Gute!

René Brix

Molchi
Prima.
Ist das erste Mal, dass ich hier etwas kaufen möchte.
Wie ist der weitere Ablauf ?

Rene Brix
Hallo!

Im Prinzip wie bei Ebay. Zu dem vereinbarten Preis kommt noch das Porto. Dann wird das Geld überwiesen oder per Paypal "Family and Friends" geschickt. Dann geht der Kit zur Post. Manchmal tausche ich auch Kits mit Interessenten. Mein "Baugebiet" sind Panzer von Dragon in 1:35 und Flugzeuge von Eduard in 1:48.
Bei Fragen bitte einfach melden.

Viele Grüße und alles Gute!

René

Molchi
Ach so geht das.
Dann gib mir doch bitte eine Mail Adresse für Paypal damit ich dir das Geld senden kann… zum tauschen hab ich nichts.

Rene Brix
Guten Abend!
Bin leider heute noch unterwegs. Melde mich Morgen!
Viele Grüße und alles Gute!

Greetings! Here are some pics of my new build. Skating back into the post-WW II period, it's the first Soviet supersonic fighter, the MiG-19. The original KP had this aircraft in their lineup back when and it was the first kit I have completed fully by myself as a wee lad. I was actually home "sick" from school for a week recovering from chicken pocks. Instead of heling myself appropriately in bed, I modeled illicitly at the kitchen table as soon as my parents left for work. Ahhh, what a glorious week…

The kit is the much-reviled 2019 "new tool" from KPs "traditional manufacturer" (or usurper, depending on where one stands in this ongoing mud-slinging match). It's a short-run technology kit, so "traditional" in that sense but really a bit old-school for today's pampered modeler. In the "modern" era, Trumpeter had it in their catalog in 2008 but it was never released. Clear Prop has been working on it last few years but the events in Ukraine clearly impacted its release. Rather than wait for a better offering, I decided to go for it and build the KP's kit with few PE and resin bits thrown in. Hope you enjoy!

Impressive scratch work 👍👍 Looks like it's going to be amazing!

What a start, great scratchbuilding. Following!

Oh good! Looking forward to another scratch building masterclass. 🙂

Taking a seat!

Matti Thomaes
Fantastic scratchwork, following

Well described building techniques! Following! 😄

Nicolas
Great start. 👍

Cuajete
Great start. Following!

Zbynek Honzik
It's gonna be another ride!
I'm taking a seat and I'll be watching closely. And I'm sure I'll learn something.
Thanks for sharing Alec!

Alec K
Thanks all for coming along and your positive comments 👍 This build is coming along nicely, so far...

Łukasz Gliński
Oh wow, what a topic, watching for sure, even though it might kill my will to build my Farmers afterwards 😄

Marko Arangelov
Wonderful!

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
Really nice progress Alec - I´m in for this 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Fantastic job so far. Keep it up!

Excellent start Alec, and great choice of aircraft type. As a kid I loved the box art on the old box from Kovozávody. I built this new KP and I know that it is not exactly a top kit. But it probably doesn't matter to you, almost everything will be scratchbuild anyway 😄

Alec K
Gents, I appreciate you stopping by 🙂

Łukasz, this kit can be built nicely OOB, as demonstrated very recently by a modeler here accomplishing this in 10 days (something I am not capable of…). Building the OG Kovozavody is another matter 😄

Jakube, I agree regarding the box art. Velc just knows his stuff! The cover of this kit is pretty good as well imho. Thanks for the reminder about your build, forgot about it (including it here for reference). Cheers!

Eine gute Recherche, ist schon der halbe Weg zum Erfolg. Ich schau da mal weiter zu.

Sylvain Vernier
a new well documented article 👀

Cuajete
Nice start. Following! 👍

Raphael Bernecole
Very Nice 🙂

Cuajete
Marius, I'm glad you're taking up this interesting project again.
Very nice color scheme! It's the same scheme that this Mig-15 UTI? Egyptian Warriors (Condor Decals 72014, 1:72)

Very nice camo sir 👍

Alec K
Excellent! Taking a belated seat.

Marius
Thank you for the interest mates!

@Cuajete: in a way it's similar, but not two EAF machines of the same type had the same "Nile" camouflage pattern. This was left to the freedom of artistic expresion of the maintainance workers. The rule was to use those three main colors: sand (sometimes orange sand), the weird green and a very dark green-tan (close to a complete black). The darkest color is certainly not the proposed brown of that decal sheet.

Otherwise, some of the EAF MiGs were overhauled in Warsaw Pact countries and were locally painted with only similar paints. The MiG-17 from the first picture of this album is such an example, where they applied directly black for the darkest color.

Sometimes order of colors was switched, while sometimes the applied pattern was completely irregular:

This one below is some restored/repainted piece of museum in the US, where the darkest color is wrongly applied as brown:

Fantastic paint work.

Vert interesting project and it's always nice to see a build move from the shelf of doom back to the workbench 🙂

Cuajete

Nice.

Sergeant John Hannah VC was, at 18 the youngest aircrew to win the VC

gorby
I remember building this kit as a kid, so I'm interested to see what you can do with it. It's about time Airfix retooled it.

Sy Bar
I'm still trying to improve my "sanding" pre-shade technique, I think it works best with lacquer paints as they stick much better to the exposed plastic than any other type. As this will join my other VC tributes it will be on a pedestal so I'm happy enough with the underside - no competition winner but ok as will not be seen but was good practice with black

Sy Bar
Time for more practice with doing my own masks based on the decal sheet. I intend to cover these with a blank which I now know should be a fraction smaller than the outer ring thus preventing a gap showing up, either that or I should spray the outer ring colour larger which seams to be the same idea only different😆. If any one with better knowledge on the best way you should approach spraying roundels please advise 👍

David Taylor
Watching.

Ben M
Seems like if you painted the roundel after the base color you wouldn't have the gap problem?

Sy Bar
You're welcome David.

Ben, sometimes I miss the trees for the woods, you have a simple solution 👍. To try and make me seam a little less foolish I think I was trying to ensure I didn't get any sign of the camo marks in the roundels and in doing so have over complicated my life 🤪

Ben M
I looked at how I did it the one time I tried it and I did the opposite, I painted the roundel first but didn't mask the edge round. Then I masked the whole thing with a tape circle PVA-KNIL Deperdussin-Léon de Brouckère Monoplane | Album by Bourgeois Detailism (1:48)

I try to come up with a plan where every edge is only masked once of that makes sense.

Sy Bar
@Ben That's a great looking build you did there. thats the kind of thing I was going for but I tend to confuse my small bear brain as can be seen by the extra yellow ring above (pic 15) that should have been white 🤪

David Taylor
We need a new 1/48 Hampden.
