Thanks! She ll be my entry at the next local exhibition.
The kit is excellent, plastic is very good, sprues are top notch, no flash at all and no pin marks in inadequate places, oob detail level is very high (surfaces, cockpit, wheels and wells, burner cans... every part of the plane is finely rendered) with well calibrated and consistent panel lines. The fit is impeccable too, barely used any putty at all. The build was a real pleasure 😄 ICM did an outstanding job. Great value for the price. Highly recommended!

Thank Oleg!
@Lukasz for the record, this is the 2018 tooling, not the one from 2008 by the same company. The latter is also in my stash, but i skipped it in favor of the former. Huge progress by ICM in that decade, the 2018 Mig-25 mould (and decals and stencils) are on par if not better than hasegawa or trumpeter!

@Vince: ICM definitely better than Hasegawa- but we're comparing different decades of plastic technology. Thanks for making the 2008/2018 differentiation, worth noting

Obviously the venerable Hasegawa tooling from the '70s was not the object of my comparison, rather the quality level of the firm's releases in the early 2010s like their 1:72 Typhoon or Osprey, which are both excellent.

Album info
Here ´s an intermediate report,
after decals but before weathering. This kit is great, fantastic details both on the surface but also in the pits and the wells. Fit is impeccable if assembled carefully. The oob burner cans are top notch, but considering how proeminent a feature the engines are for a Foxbat, i used resin substitutes.
