A place for our military aviation modellers to show their stuff. It may not be civil but it still has a home here

Korean War MiG 15 Night Fighter

Postby BradG » Mon Feb 25, 2019 10:08 pm

This is the old Monogram 1/48 MiG 15 from the 70's. Dad had this kit kicking around the house for at least 30 years and he finally gave it to me so I thought I'd build it. It's not too bad, but scales out to around 1/44, so any aftermarket bits you have in 1/48 will be way too small.  The fit is decent but the canopy is fairly poor. I added some instrument decals to the cockpit to add a little detail. Markings are those of Maj I. P. Golshevskij who apparently flight night time interception missions over Korea. Decals from the spares box and I made the front FOD cover.

That's a paint job you don't see every day. Nice result Brad on an older kit.
