Another work of art my friend... I especially like how you eroded the top coat on the wings and upper fuselage to expose the zinc chromate type primer below.
George Johnson said on December 22, 2017
Thanks, Louis. Check out the Work in Progress section here for more info on how I did that.

I will head right on over now... Thanks buddy.

Outstanding MiG-31, I have read that AMK has produced an amazing kit. Your build thread is well done. I wonder if there other kits are just as involved as this one and good. Going to look into picking one of these up, quite impressive. Thanks for sharing.

Wow...that IS stunning, my friend - nice work!

Apart from the brilliant craftsmanship, it's the inspiration that stands out.
To me the best 31 on the planet.

An excellent work of craftsmanship! Love all the weathering and detail work that went into this. A beautiful model.
George Johnson said on December 23, 2017
Thanks again, all. I am continually inspired by your work.
Stephen W Towle said on December 23, 2017
George, you build captures the brute force of the Mig-31. Some big honking engines bolted onto some steel and titanium built to shoot down B-1's and B-52s. Two thumbs up. Looking forward to seeing more of your gifts and talents in modeling.

I particularly like the realistic finish.

VERY nicely done, George! That is a beast of an aircraft, for sure! Your finish work & shading are truly excellent.
I look forward to seeing more from you!

Merry Xmas mate! That is a work of art! Following the work in progress was definitely educational as well.
George Johnson said on December 23, 2017
Merry Christmas to you, too Richard. I'm glad you enjoyed the build. I do like your ninja and I might build one, too. I see that you're a cook. That's pretty cool. I enjoy eating and my wife really enjoys cooking. She has over 2,000 cookbooks!
Richard Mcstay said on December 24, 2017
That's a lot of cook books! That is what I'm doing right now actually, I've been put in charge of the Christmas dinner... never a day off!
George Johnson said on December 24, 2017
Oh what fun. Have a great Christmas.
Richard Mcstay said on December 24, 2017
You too mate, merry Christmas.
