This MiG 21 kit was indeed trouble free with respect to part fits.  I have used Automotive paints (Duco) for the spray paint job.

NOTES:
Make sure you test your model for any reactivity with the solvent/thinner.  Keep the canopy clear of it.  Mask the canopy completely from both sides by tape and trace the lines by cutter.
Surgical cutters can be put to good use for tracing. 
Make sure to add weight to the nose so as to keep it from toppling! 

Enjoy the photos.
