I'm very impressed and somewhat jealous of your talents. Probably your most convincing build to date. I spent many years working on aircraft in hangars while serving in the US Air Force. Looks like the real thing to me. Are you planning dioramas for any future builds perhaps?
Hello Darren, Thanks for good words. I'm glad you like it :) Yes, I have more or less specified plan for another diorama, but it is going to be a bigger prject and I'm not sure when I will do it. Did not know you server in US Air Force, that is very interesting, and makes me wonder what kind of aircraft you had worked on? HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YUO AND YOUR LOSE ONES! ALL THE BEST!
@@modelfun I worked as an avionics technician on F-16C and A-10C aircraft. It was a very interesting career but after nearly 25 years I'm retired for good 🙂 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
To nasz MiG-21R z Sochaczewa z 32 Pułku Lotnictwa Rozpoznawczo Taktycznego dokładniej z 2 eskadry. Przepiękny, wiele prób podejmowałem żeby taki kupić. Naprawdę cudowny. Zazdroszczę takiego egzemplarza :)

I really enjoyed watching this build and the final result is terrific, especially in the diorama setting. I like the way you break your episodes into short watchable segments and provide great tips and ideas during your commentary. The CA on a wax candle is a brilliant idea which I now use so thanks for sharing this. I'm currently catching up and watching the Beaufort build.....great job so far :)

Tym Migiem w dioramie chyba przeszedłeś samego siebie. Mam sentyment do tego samolotu, mieszkam 30 km od Łasku, często widywałem te maszyny na niebie. Sam samolot wygląda świetnie, różne odcienie blach nadają realizmu. Jednak największe wrażenie zrobiły zdjęcia w hangarze. Chyba pierwszy raz widzę tak realistyczne zdjęcia modelu w dioramie. Perspektywa, skala, naświetlanie, wszystko wygląda jak zdjęcie prawdziwego Miga. Do tej pory FW-190 z Twoich modeli podobał mi się najbardziej, ale teraz, ten MiG chyba wygrywa. W mojej ocenie 11 na 10 😀 Ja tymczasem sklejam z siostrzeńcem Mi-24 w skali 1/72.
Dziękuje, zrobiłeś mi dzień tym komentarzem. Jak pewnie każdy, bardzo lubię jak moja praca komuś poza mną się podoba :) Miałem kiedyś Mi-24 od revell'a w tej skali , pamiętam że to był jeden z moich ulubionych modeli. Jak Wam idzie? SZCZĘŚLIWEGO NOWEGO ROKU!
@@modelfun Cześć. My jesteśmy jeszcze na etapie składania. Najpierw sklejaliśmy elementy wnętrza. Teraz sklejamy wszystkie drobiazgi które są na zewnątrz. Te wszystkie elementy jutro pomalujemy podkładem, i niektóre z nich pomalujemy już docelowym kolorem. Potem wszystkie te elementy będziemy składać w całość. Narazie widzę spasowanie elementów nie jest złe. W tym roku Mikołaj siostrzeńcowi obrodził, w kolejce jest T-34/75. Otworzyłem pudełko, patrzę na wyprawki, a to model z 1975 roku 😁😂😲. Na YT jest trochę filmów z jego wykonania więc czymś będziemy się wzorować. Cromwell będzie miał towarzystwo 😉. Również życzę Szczęśliwego Nowego Roku.
Very impressive. Glad TH-cam suggested your video to me. Subscribed and looking forward to exploring your catalog of videos to learn more techniques from you. Thanks for sharing your hard work.
I enjoy everything about your video from the build quality to the skill, narration and video quality! You're on my regular rotation for channels I subscribe to! :) Thanks and keep it up, videos like this bring back my own modeling mojo!
Excellent build. Very timely as I just received the Eduard 1/48 Mig-21 PFM in the mail today. One drawback of that kit is that the instructions don't always show which of the decal variants apply to alternative parts. One example is that two photoetch frets are provided for the cockpit, one in turquoise green and the other in gray, but nothing is noted as to which to use. As I am going to build it as the Polish plane from 1994, my guess is the gray one is correct.
Thank you. Yes, I strugelled with some decals and stencils. Regarding cockpit, I'm not an expert, but I think the gray was a color used in the early production phases, later on it was replaced with the green. I think there is a huge debate over it on britmodeller forum, possibly you can find details there. Thankyou for watching and have fun with your model.
Very good job, I am quite impressed by the way you master the airbrush, I am kind of back to modeling after a twenty years hiatus and I am still struggling to find the proper air pressure and dilution to get it right 😅 otherwise, i love the very nice balance you choose for the weathering, I hate when heavy handed people make aircraft look like junkyard relics… keep on delighting us with such beautiful work! Cheers, Tony
Great looking MiG! I've had nothing but bad experiences with AK Extreme metal paints. Whenever I've used masking tape on them, the adhesive from the tape embeds itself into the paint, ruining the surface. They also reactivate with enamel thinners, so weathering directly on them is a no go. I've switched to mr color super metallic 2 for my metal finishes.
Thank you. Yes, I've gone through all mentioned problems with these paints when built my P-51. This time I used the tape carefully, removed the adhesive residue with a white spirit and sealed the paind with clear warnish before I added decals. All the best for new year!
New subscriber here! Always a pleasure to watch you build. Your work literally looks like it could take to the skies. I haven't built a model for years but one of these days I might get back into it. In the meantime I'll live vicariously through you. Cheers! And a Happy New Year to you.
Good afternoon my friend, that was a extremely awesome build of this very iconic fighter, I have just come across your channel and have subscribed, I thought your channel looked familiar, and I thought I had already subscribed but I had not, looking forward to more of your builds, best regards from Australia, and your English sounds very good to me, cheers Les
Very nice assembly ! sorry but I like also very much the diorama, the hangar inside is so realistic : please is it "clap" picture technic ( with real picture sticked on diorama ) ? or real plastic 1/48 scale made ? thanks for sharing, you are motivated me with this very nice models, true that big 1/48 scale is so cool....Take care, best wisches 2024 ; )
Thank you for watching and your comment. The hangar is real, in 1:48 scale from Coastal Kits. You can find it uder the link below: www.super-hobby.co.uk/products/Hangar-Diorama-Set.html HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Hi, these decals were in the kit, just for a different marking option. Normally these decal goes around the windows in the windshield and main canopy. In the version I build it is brown , but there is another decal in black color - for other version, and this the one I used around the cocpit. Pozdrawiam! :)
I didn't notice that the new Profipack of this model has such decals. In the previous edition (with an orange, not gold, stripe on the box) this wasn't present.
Hi! Amazing work! May I ask you how much time did you spend on this kit? I'm relatively new into this hobby and I have problem with rushing my job, so i messed up very often... Anyway, once again amazing finish. I'm planning to build one Mig-21 myself, so I hope it will turn out nicely. Cheers!
Hi, thank you for watching and leaving the comment. I'm happy you like it. This one took around 5 weeks. I usually build about 5 to 6 models per year. But of course it depends on the model. Right now I'm builiding A-10c Thunderbolt II, it is third month and still not finished;). But it is summer and lot of other things to do. Eduard makes great MiGs 21. I really enjoyed this one. Do, fingers crossed for you, and have fun 🥳!!
