Mig-15, Tamiya 1/48
This Mig model is supposed to be an older idle machine somewhere on the edge of the airport somewhere in Russia.
The model is without accessories and I built it as a test of metallic colors and riveting.

The riveting is FANTASTIC, Tomáš.
I’d love to learn more how it went and what you used to get them aligned so nicely.

Impressive Mig! Fantastic artistic view of an aged NMF plane, and your riveting is very professional also.

I think Rob said it perfectly; it’s the character of this model that stands out. Brilliant.

Simply fabulous. I’d love to have that kind of skill at metallic finish. Looks like it’s about to jump off the screen.

Brilliant. I think we need another Tomas tutorial, this time on riveting.

Ditto what everyone else said! Really excellent. It really does come alive. I also love the unique tile pattern on the base. Really? On a Russian base?

Thanks for commenting. I was riding on this model for the very first time. Most of all, I used a straight metal ruler and a self adhesive tape of 1 mm thick.
