Starting a new build, no time limit on this one. 48 scale Eduard boxing of the Academy Mig-29. Added goodies that come in the kit is a resin cockpit. I will be adding a Quickboost corrected resin nose, Brassin wheels, Brassin exhausts and Brassin R-27 missiles.

Thanks all. The seat is 95% done. There is some PE that won't be glued on till it is cut from the block and ready to be put into the plane. Now to finish the cockpit.

Cockpit has been glued into the upper forward fuselage piece. I am also working on one of the exhausts. They are made by Brassin, an Eduard company. Nice stuff.

All comments are welcome.

Looks beautiful .

 

[TRM]

Wa=yne, that dash is looking sweet, not to mation the afterburner!! Keep it coming!

the front fuselage comes in 4 pieces. the fit is not the best but if I take my time I can fix it no problem. I am going to use the Quickboost resin nose and did a quick fit to see how it looked. A little sanding at the joint and it it like a drop in upgrade.

Thanks for the comments guys.
