Thanks, Henry.
It is nearly finished now. Just a few details and prop. Might order Brassin HVAR rockets too.

Re: Softscience Labs 2.5
I can but agree with the others, that is a very fine looking Corsair.

Re: Softscience Labs 2.5
Just a random Friday night update.
This is Trumpeter's 1:72 MiG-29A. This kit has renewed my mojo for 72nd scale models. It is absolutely lovely, beautifully designed and immensely buildable. The paint scheme also makes finishing easy.
It has taken me a week to get this far. I still have dozens of tiny stencils to add, but that shouldn't take more than one night.
The gear and missiles have already been painted and are off to the side. Still need to do the ejection seat and exhausts. Weathering and some small detail painting. May not get done before I have to head out for a week on Monday, but should be done shortly afterwards.
Seriously, if your mojo is gone, give one of Trumpy MiG-29 kits a go.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

One terrific Mig.
Besting 60 years of mediocre building of average kits in the stand off scale
Re: Softscience Labs 2.5
Well tidy Corsair and Mig.

Re: Softscience Labs 2.5
Thanks, guys.
Here it is with a wash. Not something I typically do in 1/72, but these planes got pretty grungy, and I wanted to simulate that.

Looks suitably world weary. Like it.
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

Re: Softscience Labs 2.5
stellar! You say Trumpy Mig29, hmm, you just got me poorer by a 20 bucks . I need to get one since the only one I have ever made was Hasegawa quasi-29.

You won't regret it. The UB comes with cool Polish markings.Marek wrote:stellar! You say Trumpy Mig29, hmm, you just got me poorer by a 20 bucks . I need to get one since the only one I have ever made was Hasegawa quasi-29.
