While waiting for some paints to arrive in the mail to continue my MiG-23 build project, I decided to do a very quick build of the Eduard L-39 in my stash. This kit is labeled as a "weekend" build, which might be a bit optimistic for me, but should still be a quick progress.

Do you already have a plan for the shades you're going to use? I found the L-39 classic camouflage very hard to get right. I hope you'll have more luck with it.

For the Hungarian standard camo, MRP has released an entire set, consisting of MRP-351 Brown, MRP-352 Dark Green and MRP-353 Light Blue.

Yesterday I spent some time comparing the hue and tint of the MRP paints with my own mix of Tamiya acrylics (as described in photo 26 above), and found them to be absolutely identical. I also found the MRP paints much too smelly and aggressive and hard to adjust if you want to blend in slightly varying tones in panels etc. The Tamiyas can furthermore be used for extremely diluted thin filter applications, while the MRP are block solid.

Well done on those paints!
I agree with you, Tamiya paints spray great and don't smell nearly as nasty as MRP's.

I see you mixed too much of this colour and used it on the background 😋
Lovely preshading, sth I don't have enough patience for

Very nice painting job, Thomas. Looks fantastic so far 👍
I recently saw that Edward has released the transparent parts of this kit as "L-39 Revised Canopy":

Do you know what problem the original transparent parts have?
24 July, 17:49
![](/profiles/img/57594-145-s.jpg)
Cuajete, thank you! No, I wasn't aware of any issues with the canopy. To me, the version provided in the kit is good enough, it certainly looks correct compared with photos.
24 July, 19:53
![](/profiles/img/25743-467-s.jpg)
I'm not sure, but the kit photos show onle the multi part canopy. The revised Canopy kit also has a single peace closed version.
25 July, 04:27
![](/profiles/img/57594-145-s.jpg)
Nicolas, yes, you are right. With the new set you also get a closed canopy so the builder doesn't have to join the separate pieces together. I guess it makes for a simpler build.

@ Cuajete: I tried it direktly from Thomas' albums. There it works, but ther is a notice that comments are disabled.

Very nice! This build reminds me that I started a similar kit more thas ten years ago, with a Czech camo and some decals already applied...Now It's om the "shelf od doom" ...Maybe something I'll retake it!
27 July, 20:07
![](/profiles/img/57594-145-s.jpg)
And with a little effort, the project is pushed over the finishing line. Photos will come soon!

This really is a trip into history. I wish you well with your work on the model. And I'll be happy to follow the progress.
The drop tanks used on the Mig you are building are the original (older) version. They were attached directly to the wing (no hinge) and did not have stabilizing ailerons on the end. This type of tanks had one unpleasant feature. When dropping the empty tank, the tank rolled on the wing. This was annoying because it could damage the control surfaces. Therefore, these tanks were replaced by a new type with stabilizing surfaces at the end of the tank and these tanks were suspended on a wing hanger (tanks of this type are in the kit). This solution eliminated the rolling problem.

![](/profiles/img/43210-278-s.jpg)
Ludvik, thank you for the details. I did not know that. I imagine they usually did not drop the tanks on trainers.
I also masked the canopy last night. The molding of the frames are a bit vague and lots of curves so it will require some cleanup after painting.
27 July, 12:12
![](/profiles/img/69549-161-s.jpg)
Ben, you're right that trainer planes didn't usually drop tanks. In peacetime, in normal use, even combat aircraft don't drop tanks (except in emergency situations or exercises).
The purpose of my comment was merely to explain why the tanks on Indonesian aircraft differ from those in the kit.
I look forward to following your progress and wish you a lot of fun building the model and the result to your liking.

Well the other night I got frustrated with the Vallejo gloss black primer clogging my airbrush, so I added some Mr leveling thinner and gave it the worst orange peel ever as this is totally incompatible with the paint. I thought I could selectively strip the paint with windex but while that kind of stripped the paint it also dissolved a lot of the perfect plastic putty and also dissolved the canopy pva glue and masking. Also I broke off a wing and a horizontal stabilizer. So a bit of a setback.
I have constant problems getting the Vallejo gloss black primer to not clog my 0.4mm nozzle.
18 August, 01:28
![](/profiles/img/138076-707-s.jpg)
It's sad, Ben. These Vallejo primers can only be diluted with distilled water because they are based on acrylic urethane (this is my IMHO). Even Vallejo's Thinner and Flow Improver for acrylic paints does not go well with these primers. The same applies to their polyurethane varnishes.

Not saying this will solve your issue, but they have a video with ratios out: Youtube Video

Wow that video seam to show it's a lot of hard work to get their primer coat working 👀
I'd go with mr surfacer 1500 approx 50:50 with mr levelling thinner, then if you need a gloss use mr Color gx110 again 50:50 with levelling thinner, sounds just as complex but I've never had this block airbrush and you can get rid of surface issue before you gloss saving the thicker gloss primer obscuring details..
Good luck on you build

Excellent paint and decals, always a big fan of the light blue/Gulf orange paint schemes.
14 August, 23:18
![](/profiles/img/18207-254-s.jpg)
@Ray I agree, this scheme is my favourite. I have just been gifted the decals for the orange version from the 2011 Macou GP so will be building that one too at some point.
@George thank you

Thanks mates for the kind words and compliments and likes. The kit was a straightforward build and I plan on building another one soon
17 August, 19:17
![](/profiles/img/81868-676-s.jpg)
Great work mate! How did you find the fit of the parts. Would you say it's Tamiya level?
17 August, 19:34
![](/profiles/img/18207-254-s.jpg)
@Swapnil, fit of the parts was good. I have a small concern over the right side door/air intake but that could be down to user error. I will know more on the next build.
Part count was low with the engine bay being almost a single moulding so it is more a painting exercise rather than a building challenge. Moulding was good though
