Work In Progress
Cockpit complete of my Bissau-Guinean MiG-17 project. My first time using a resin seat, this one is from Pavla. Unfortunately one of the armrests either broke when handled or wasn't properly cast (probably my fault on balance). Still, it looks pretty good.
Spray primed and brush painted with Revell & Humbrol acrylics. Enamel washed and dry-brushed with Revell also.

Andy BallMay I join you?. I have this in the stash and hear it can be tricky as a kit to build?, yours looks great so far!

aero.baticsOf course, you're both welcome! I'd better do some more reading on the kit as it's early days yet in the build. I know it has a tendency to tail sit that I shall attempt to avoid. Please do bear with me on the rest of the build, life is rather hectic at the moment.

Bernhard PetheDas Schwanzsitzen kann man mit reichlich Gewicht im Bug vermeiden. Da ist ausreichend Platz dafür.

Andy BallCheck Thomas Kolb's build about 2 years ago. He documented most of the pitfalls- hope it helps and keep us posted!

MariusGood start since you already made the wise choice to replace that trash seat. Lucky you to even find a KK-2 seat from Pavla since there almost nowhere to find.
