1/72 KP MIG-21 SM

Gallery Article by Dragan Cvetic on May 7 2010

 

Here is my latest model.  I obtained the old KP kit several years back in order to make a Yugoslav MiG-21.  I changed my mind so the decision fell to the attractive looking Soviet MiG-21 SM.  The kit itself is the well known old KP MiG-21 MF.

I scrathcbuilt the entire cockpit and made homemade copies of the front windshield and canopy of the Condor MiG-21 R because the KP one is not good enough for the overall look of the MiG-21.The panel lines were rescribed and the pitot tube is scratchbuilt too.  

I used spare decals and the camo is freehanded with 0.2 airbrush.  The paints are homemade mix of MM, Revell and Tamiya enamels.  

I hope you like it.

P.S. here are two photos of my MiG-21 collection in 1:72
