1/72 Academy MiG-27

by Murli Rajan

--------------------

 

This is my first effort at scale model building. I chanced upon this kit at a hobby shop in Mumbai. India . I was more interested in it as the aircraft is flown by Indian Air Force

  Scale modeling in India is very difficult as one does not even get kits, paints and accessories

  

  I am sure there are many flaws in the model. But its my 1st effort 

 

The Mig 27 Flogger or Bahadur (brave) as it is christened in India is also license produced by HAL in India

 

The Academy kit itself has many flaws with regards to fit and accuracy, with the most important being the nose.

 

I used Academy enamels mixed and matched and decals are from Linden Hill

 

Happy to join the ARC
