Here are some
pictures of my second MiG-23. In this case it is the MF (my first one was a S),
in the colours of an Soviet squadron, based in East Germany in the 1980´s.

The kit is an old
ESCI-one, which Italeri re-released. There was a lot to do, to make this kit more
realistic. At first I polished the whole surface. Next I built a cockpit
with old parts. After assembling I engraved the whole surface in a way
which is
quiet similar the original struktur.....and this work took days!!!!!
My model is
displayed with all flaps down, each airbreak is open, also the
brake-parachutes-casing, the canopy.....
The painting is one
of the usual Soviet scheme for an interceptor. At least I`m very satisfied
with the result.
