I have built several of these cool Radar Frescos, but this old model is a very tricky one to build correctly. Have fun and I am sure you will do a great job!

Tricky model?
Correct dimensions, fine and many details, discreet engraving, colorful and usable decals, I really don't know what you mean, Thomas.
Good luck, Chris.

Please don't scare me. 😉 But I'm used to making old kits. Not possible - is not possible!
Just lay back, grab beer and chips and watch me struggling. 🙂

I've built the old KP MiG-15UTI and Su-7. In both cases for some reason the cockpit doesn't go together like the instructions, so fit stuff before gluing. The parts count is low. The surface detailing is nice. The fit is indifferent.

Strange. I built the cockpit as in the instruction. Fits well. When dried, the instruments panel will be next.

Finished this kit. The canopy is an awful mess and I would call it "milky". The rivets are very present. The best way for me is to visit the final kit from a distance of 1 m. Then it looks great. The kit seems to be from 1974 as this is the boxart. And I did use the decals from the box: The Vallejo Aluminium was airbrushed with gloss varnish, then the decals with MicroSet and microSol. Afterwards satin varnish over all.

It's very nostalgic for me. This model reminds me of my modelling beginnings. 😉

Very nice. I am with Ludvik, very nostalgic. The quality we were ok with in those days 😅…
