Excellent build Nathan, looks like a winner!

Thanks guys and gal!

Lovely. I still need to build one of these. One of my fav jets; it's a travesty I haven't built the Eduard kit yet.

Yours is beautiful!

I love your Cuban and want to smoke it...

Hi Nathant,

as written in another thread, your Cuban 668 act as my "rolemodel" in my Mig-21 project...
And indeed, the cockpit color is very challenging to get the right tone/hue.
Do you still remember what mixing ratios you used for H41, H25 and H46 ?



I googled and found that someone had more or a less mixed fifty-fifty H25 and H46, but you use also H41?

Kari, I think I ended up adding the H 41 because the 50/50 mix of the emerald green and sky blue looked too Torqouise/greenish. Part of the fun is just throwing paint til things look right

[KSaarni]

:-) That's of course very much true, thanks Nathant!
