Mig-17 Polish Air Force - Poetic freedom.
Inspiration for this build
Step 1 in the build and already a mistake. I glued the cockpit floor upside down :-/
Cockpit and instrument panels but the floor upside down.
Black primer
Vallejo Aluminium adds some blingbling
It's all about clamping
Sanding

Underside Light Blue (AK2244)
Humbrol Leather
Humbrol Topside Green
Looks like a camuoflaged jet
I borrowed the decals from the Hasegawa Mig-27
Rocket pods from the Yak-28PP (A-Model
A lot of weight in the nose and still a tailsitter …
I glued the plane on the base. Tailsitter problem solved but airplane will never fly again.
All in all, not so bad.

Łukasz GlińskiNicely weathered, though the accuracy was not the aim 😉 The borrowed decals come from MiG-23 actually, that served here too.

Album info
Build of the Airfix Mig-17.
I like to make my own version of an airplane and therefore use decals that I borrow from other kits. Poetic freedom 🙂
