That's a nice trio!  :thumbsup: I believe that ZTS Plastyk boxes these kits, right? Your Mig-19 looks just like the kit i have. I've always liked the mig family and bought the 17,19,and 21 from that brand as they were really cheap here in Portugal, 6€ each. I couldn't find a cheap 15 so bought the Eduard profi-pack for 15€ although i'm not a profi-modeler...  ;D

Nice work and a nice little dio to display it. Love the colour combo. Great little family pic too, can really see the resemblance in them !

Thanks  :thumbsup:

@Dizzyfugu: Yes, all those little air intakes. But all of those KP kits I made so far, on all of them, the nose air intake dod not fit at all. Some brute force was needed all the time.

@zenrat: I already made a Czech Mig21, its here http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,35312.60.html. But the next in the "MiG Collection" will be a MiG 9

Time to start another what-if plane. This one will be a paint job again.

So this is the thing to start with



The classic three-color kit:

And of the most disappointing. Can you imagine how sad I was when I bought this one as a kid that NONE of all this dozen of 1.000 lb.bombs was included...?  :-\

Looking forward to see what becomes of it! A Marineflieger, perhaps :rolleyes: - the aircraft they actually had wanted instead of the F-104G (beside the Viggen, of course).

We should have a Matchbox paint it like the plastic colours GB.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Marineflieger - right guess, there are still a few planes missing for my Graf Zepplein Air Wing.

And I can tell you - I was really sad when I opened the box a few days ago and saw that non of those 1.000 lb bombs were included...... :(
Guess I have to see what the spare part box gives.

OOB Matchbox GB, no paint. ;D

Hm, I could print some REALLY big decals?  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

Wow, this plane is big compared to other 1/72 scale ones.

To start with, we need some pilots:



And it will get a very special three color camo painting.....



... of course not!

Anyway, funny to see it in those different colors.

Or even better: take a kit of a different scale and simulate an OOB 1:72 Matchbox kit!

Check this here... subtle!

If you think a Buccaneer is BIG take a look at the B-36 Crop duster

Or even better use a kit that Matchbox never produced and paint each sprue a different colour then build it out of the box  ;D  That could really confuse the JMN's  ;D
