Christian RistitsHello Mates, started today with my MiG-21 SMT from Eduard...more infos as usual on my blog on ristits.at/2014/05/mig-21-smt-148-eduard/ ...glad if you like it!

Christian RistitsUnfortunately I did not hit the exact colour...but in my opinion Eduard is too blue with his etch-parts...against mine is too turkise...but on the photos it looks more worse that it is...

Christian RistitsHello Mates, after one week holiday in Italy some small progress from today of my MiG-21...fuselage is put together, main wheel bay is built and weathered...

Bernhard SchrockHi Christian, großes Lob retour!! Der Sitz ist phantastisch. Hast du nicht Lust für mich als Zulieferer für Sitze und Gurte einzusteigen? 🙂 Gurte sind für mich nämlich der Albtraum.

Christian RistitsHallo Bernhard, vielen Dank! Warum nicht, wenn wir das logistisch auf die Reihe bekommen 😉 Ich muss sagen, Eduard hat hier ganze Arbeit geleistet, der Bausatz und die Resin-Teile machen bis jetzt sehr viel Spaß!

Christian BruerHi Christian, impressive build so far. I'm in with this! Cheers, Christian

Christian RistitsThank you guys! Its the first Time that I will try some weathering-washing...Augie recommended me the washings from Flory models...I have to say that this is really cool stuff!

Christian RistitsSo Bad news...yesterday I failed with the paint-job on the fuselage...I have to remove all the paint...at the moment I am trying to rescue the panel lines as they are full with paint...hope that I can rescue the body and proceed building!

Christian BruerI had this with one of my scale 1/48 planes too. I removed all the paint even in the panel lines using fine steel wool to clean the surface and a fine needle to remove the paint out of the panels lines. Time consumpting but it works well. Good luck, cheers Christian

Bernhard SchrockOops! Eben habe ich mal wieder bei Dir geschaut und über die Panne gelesen. Wie kommst Du voran? Übrigens welche Farbe hast du verwendet und was ist genau passiert? Hochglanz?

Christian RistitsHallo Bernhard, ich hatte an dem Abend einfach keine Geduld mehr...die Mig hat ja ein aufwendiges Tarn-Schema...die Farben hab ich mir mittels Netz auf Revell umgemünzt...obwohl ich mit dem Ergebnis eher skeptisch bin. Naja, was soll ich sagen, schlecht deckende Farbtöne, mit dem falschen Farbton begonnen...dann hab ich es Frei Hand versucht (mit meinem Airbrush Beginner Set fast unmöglich), es wollte einfach nicht gelingen...Farbe verlaufen usw...
Habe dann die ganze Farbe mit Cleaner abgewischt...und die Panel Lines mit dem Messer ausgekratzt...
Bin gerade beim 2. Versuch...sieht soweit ganz gut aus - ich denke ich kann die Maschine noch retten 😉

Christian RistitsSecond attempt...the paint job is almost done...looks nice, although the colours appear a little bit too bright on the photo.

Christian RistitsReady for decaling! Glenn, this is exactly what I am thinking about...give her a smooth dirty look!

Christian BruerWell, you've had luck removing the paint! Now the bird comes out really nice. Very well done so far! I like the SMT (I build the Eduard but in scale 1/144), and your did a splendid job with your one! Cheers, Christian

Christian RistitsHello Murad and Christian, thank you so much! Yes, I am very happy with the finish and weathering...now its time to finish the bird 😉

Christian Borchmann-BackhausWelchen Farbton hast du für den Konus und die anderen Antennen genommen?
8 June 2014, 11:04
Christian RistitsHallo christian...der Farbton ist moosgruen von Revell aquacolor...lg christian
8 June 2014, 13:27
Christian RistitsUebrigens einer der am schlechten deckenden Farbtöne ueberhaupt...😉
8 June 2014, 13:53
Christian RistitsThank you guys! Today i added the Rest of the (feel like one million) decals...i think i will be able to paint the last coat of clear varnish tomorrow ☺

Roland SachsenhoferEinfach wunderbar! Cockpit seems ready to get in and go through the checklist...

Christian RistitsThank you very much for your kind feedback! She is not 100% perfect, and with some errors I should have been able to avoid. At the end I am satisfied with the final result.
Its my first russian jet in my second modelling time, and I guess its not the last 😉
@Clifford - the kit is very good, fitting and quality is excellent, instructions and decals are phenomenal, clear parts are very good, I would say it is worth every of its 30 EUR I have paid. I have to say that the investment in the resin-cockpit is not really necessary, as the kit itself is very detailed too! Just spend him an exterior photo etch set, and its good to go...

Christian RistitsFinished...if you are interested please find more pictures on my blog: ristits.at/2014/06/mig-21-smtmt-eduard-148/

Christian RistitsHallo christian...ja die decals waren im hauptbausatz mit dabei...

Dieter BihlmaierKlasse gebaut Christian. Nicht zuletzt durch die Camo ist die MiG ein Eyecatcher in der Sammlung.
2 August 2014, 22:17
Christian RistitsVielen Dank Dieter - die Lackierung hatte mich an meine Grenzen (und auch die Grenzen meines Airbrush Starter-Sets) gebracht...nicht zuletzt dadurch wahrscheinlich (zur Zeit) meine Lieblings-Maschine in der Vitrine 😉

Melf BoyensWow! I bought the same kit and all the Eduard interior-exterior etc. extras, but was scared to start it...but now i can see how it could really loook like and i have to say you did a perfect job , i like every bit of it!
16 May 2015, 20:12
Christian RistitsMany thanks mates, thats indeed an"older" build 😉
Yes Melf, the extras are marvellious! They need some extra work, but are definitely worth every working-minute! I really had no problem with them, every part was fitting well...have fun with yours!
