greetings comrades
heres a little kit bash im doing n my spare minutes

i had a broken 1/144 mig-29 and a mig-21. i was bored. i wanted something different. so i combined the two!!  

i was wondering what would happen if the mig OKB refitted the mig21 for modern warfare for sale to countrys who couldent afford more expensive fighters. i figured theyd give it a solid nose and side intakes and improved winds, tail etc. ( ill do an official story later!)

the nose is made out of a 1/72 fuel tank. the wings & tail are 29 wings the side intakes are from the other end of the fuel tank, with the kits origional intake split in two for the leading edges

what ya think, it looks kinda cool, im getting putty to fill in the holes tomorow. im not sure if its going to be used by the AMVF, maby a minor evaluation role, but it just dossnt look like a carrier craft! :unsure:

so soon i might have a refit 21, fit for the 21 centuary!

Looks fine  :wub:  ... just like the first concepts of the once proposed Chinese-US J-7-ubgrade to the Super-7 which later - after the US drawback - led to the FC-1 !!!

I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
