Dirk Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Hi, I thought I was already a member here, but I wasn`t. Too long ago, that I used forums fpr posting my stuff. I enter this comp with my started (less than 25%) Trumpeter kit. Colors are going to be like this: Here is the aftermarket stuff I got. The Zacto nozzels are also somewhere in my stash. I need to search them. The next posts will include the finished cockpit. Regards Dirk 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 Ejection seat plus cockpit is finished. These are the photos I took 3 years ago. Before I post new ones, I need to get rid of the dust on the parts. Front landing gear is nearly complete. I don´t know, if I will keep this high level of details for the rest of the kit. After nearly a 2 year break (lost my mojo completely) I try to get back . 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted March 6 Administrators Share Posted March 6 Welcome aboard, Dirk! This will be a beautiful build, no doubt. I LOVE the 29, it’s one of the most aesthetically pleasing aircraft of all time. Just all swoops and curves. I commend you for taking on the Trumpeter kit, I took the easy way out and chose 1/48 for my 29 9-13. And once again, Welcome Aboard! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, that there are some incorrections with the Trumpeter kit. But I will not adress them. Its all about having fun. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted March 7 Administrators Share Posted March 7 Absolutely! Unfortunately, I’m a river counter to a certain extent and it’s an illness I wish I could cure that. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 Two years I was able to keep that virus on distance. Last week it got me. Symptoms were like a heavy flu. They came suddenly and after three days they were gone. But I still have headaches and since yesterday my eyes start hurting after 10 min when concentrating. Not good. But my workbench is cleaned and the Mig is waiting to be finished. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Posted March 30 Author Share Posted March 30 I came to the conclusion to add intake covers. I can´t figure out how these parts fit in the intakes. Its a puzzle. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Looks like they were designed for the old Revell kit. Nothing wrong with the plastic ones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 After a holiday break I am back at the bench. Worked on the wheel wells and added more details. The wireing will start tomorrow. Intakes are going to be displayed open. And a comparison of the new "I love Kit" F-22A 1/48 and the Mig-29 1/29 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
