Egyptian Airforce Yom Kippur
MiG 17
Plastic kits for my air cover for my Yom Kippur war collection first up a MiG 17. A simple build from very old KP models kit, not the greatest kit, it had very bad fit on the body and wing mounting and the tail is incorrect along with the canopy. Still painting the pilot though which I used a 3d print, hard to find a pre 60 pilot so I ended up using a tank commander. I will retake the photo when he is placed and the canopy on and added the pilot. Quite happy with the results, I think I will purchase a Eduard kit and do another model of a MiG. I used AK real colours enamel and weathered it heavily with a brown ink wash. Decals were spares the tail Chequers were hand painted along with the nose.
Cheers
Matt
