I finally got some paint on this one. I went with Tamiya Silver Leaf overall. It’s a lacquer that will stand up to some enamel washes. These planes don’t seem to have a lot of panel variations, but they do exhibit grunge along panel lines.

John that looks great - lots of lumps and bumps add a lot of interest to the silver surface!
John Healy said 4 years, 5 months ago:

Tiny gaps filled with white glue. Decals applied. I have a few small areas to touch up with paint. Then Future and some washes.

Really good job

Well done John, It is the one early MiG I do not have in the stash or ever built is the Farmer. A couple of 15's and a 17, but your 19 is quite a motivational factor to pick one up. Alnost have this one wrapped up.

Looks great, John! It is indeed a rare bird.
I have just seen that Kovozavody released a new tool MiG-19S in my preferred scale, 1:72.

I will not buy new kits, I will not buy new kits... 🙂

Hi Csaba. I saw that Kovozavody kit. Is that a new tool?
Csaba said 4 years, 4 months ago:

Hi John, according to the various sources on the interweb, it is a new tool.

Sprue pics look good. I may have to get one.

Sebastijan, I wasn’t sure if you needed pictures posted here to use in the final reveal, so here’s a few if you can’t get them from the main page.
