The Fujimi MiG-21bis in the colors
of the Yugoslavian Air Force was made as a part of ARC Mig Group build. The cockpit was made OOB painted in "home made"
Russian interior green. The Fujimi kit is superb and you can put it together with your eyes closed. It has
splendid surface details and is dimensionally correct. Maybe only the hump is a
little too big, but it looks all right once it is on the fuselage.

I added some details like
pitot tube made from needle and home made metal parts, static electricity
dischargers on the rear parts of the wing tips and antennas on the top of
the tailfin. I also made the yellow lines around the windows from Tamiya
masking tape colored in yellow. The plane was coloured with Vallejo air
No. 50 named "Light grey" and weathered with Vallejo washes. To
put on the decals and stencils I had to include 8 different sets of
decals.
I'm very pleased
with the finished model and glad that a new JRV plane is on my shelf.
