Hello Everyone

Have finished the Mig27, happy with the way it has turned out. Ive always liked the Marine scheme the Germans use, and I managed to pick up an old Tornado that donated the decals and colour scheme; MFG1 i beleive. A few minor alignment issues that will teach me to use a jig instead of a Mk1 eyeball, but I can live with it on this one.

Pics as follows below (yes,there are a few. I was very happy with the way it turned out):

Excellent job: looks every bit as mean as it promised to do from the start!  :thumbsup:

Nice.  How hot though does the forward nozzle exhaust get?  You might find yourself needing new tyres on the main gear.   :lol:

Very well done.  Interesting combination, VSTOL and swing wing together.

Hmmm - now there's a thought: the variable-everything aeroplane. Variable incidence swing wings, vectored thrust AND a droop snoot..... :wacko:

Thanks for the comments everyone. Rickshaw you're right, I spotted that towards the end and just didn't have the guts to go pogo and outriggers on the swing wings.
