hi folks

here is my rendition on the glourous Mig-23K. this is my mark 1 model, which is now being used as a demonstrator (for the paint scheme) i will start my work on MK2 shortly.



note the scratchbuilt gun pod between the pylons







Note the FLIR ball



and my still-to-be-designated Kh missiles

Even with that Shittie camera, we can still see the beauty weathering and paint of said model.

As Nev always sez ( preach it, brother Nev  ! )  a digicam can hide any mistake.

And I still fail to see the fookup ?!

Looks REAL good to me !

Keep it up !

Cheers,

hi
thanks for the kind comments Toad

hehe, it appears this camera has done exelent in making it look better than it really is!!

if i had a decent one you would see that there is no detail on the model itself, all the weathering is actually drawn/smudged on. and if i could soom in you would see wooble pencil lines ontop ove a coat of paint that could take a nuk!! :lol:

the muck up is that the canopy/langing gear are gone this is what it woudl look like With a decent camera:  



besides the zvesda kit kickes the acadmey one, i cant wait to see what i can do to this one!

Brother Toad has preached the word faithfully, a digicam hides many a modelling sin!

Cool paint scheme though  :wub:
