Roland SachsenhoferA few days ago I started with Trumpeters MiGS to round up my collection of MiGs... I love that sturdy, pugnacious and fast looking aircraft- and I will need all my interest for this kit: fit is quite worse so far, the fuselage seems to be a little bit over-engineered to me. But Trumpeter offers an attractive cockpit- this time build without etched parts- and a well designed seat. The harness was scratched from Tamiya-tape. As you can see, a lot of filling and sanding will be required!

Christian LehmannHallo Roland,
habe noch die Farmer E im stash. Wenn ich allerdings die Spalte sehe, vergeht mir die Lust den Bausatz anzupacken. Bin gespannt, was du daraus machst.

Stefan FraundorferDas Cockpit ist dir ja schon mal gut gelungen. Aber der Rumpf sieht nach verdammt viel Spachtelarbeit aus. Wünsche dir viel Geduld.

Bill GilmanGreat work on the cockpit! But that forward fuselage/nose fit - what was TrumpyBoss thinking? But I know you will fix it! 👍

Ja genau, Modellbaumesse Ried, 15.- 16. November. Freue mich sehr, Euch beide zu sehen!
Bill, I will do my best 🙂

Roland SachsenhoferSome pictures to prove that there is live in this project.
The MiG 19s bow did cause that delay; heavy sanding, filling and rescribing work had to be done- but by now an end seems to be within reach.
The pictures show the actual status: on glossy black Alclad White Aluminum had been sprayed. After that I applied different shades of Alclad on some areas. These parts will be masked before another layer of White Aluminum will finish the colouring.

Roland SachsenhoferFinally faster than I thought the MiG-19S had been finished. Various shades of Alclad metallic paint, some masking tape, a lot of Gunze "Clear Gloss" and the firm will to get the model from the workbench at last was all I did need to do so.
Trumpeters MiG-19 was not always as exciting as I did hope, but besides some fit issues concerning the bow section I can recommend that kit for everybody interested.
And now on to an MiG-21... ? Maybe, I will see...🙂

Roland SachsenhoferThank you allot for these kind and motivating words... There was a certain lull in the building process- so I am happy I got it finished!

Christian BruerNice work and finish! Roland! I was not only impressed by your sharp and clean work but also by your high quality high speed modeling. A lot of nice projects in progress and a high output rate. Well done Roland!

Christian Borchmann-BackhausCool one! Wie hast du das Maskol so gut in die Echen der Paneele bekommen?
1 March 2015, 13:23
Roland SachsenhoferThank you both very much for these kind comments- I feel motivated! Oh yes Christian, I love a certain output rate... 🙂
Ein Zahnstocher hat das Maskol ganz gut in die Ecken geleitet, für die runden Wartungsklappen genügt eine gefühlt dosierte Menge Masko, die mit einer Pinselspitze aufgebracht wird: die Oberflächenspannung hält es bis zum Anhärten in Form. Bilder 14 bis 16 zeigen, welche Teile ich mit Maskol, welche mit Maskierband abgedeckt habe.
