So that's the same kit but with recessed panel lines correct?
there you go Medic - that's your answer! No raised panels!
Yes, same kit (mig-23 too) ,recessed lines and cheaper!!

Thank you Sir!
I've been toying with the idea of doing it in a RAF Green'Grey wrap-a-round camo as a possible 'what-if'

I too have a tip for using Tamiya putty.....don't. The stuff is atrocious.
Automotive glazing putty all the way. You can thank me later.
Thanks Jim - Russian Jets are kind of cool!
Yeah I tend to agree with you on the Tamiya - I was doing some clean up earlier and it was a swine to sand, and has gone almost slivery!?!? I'll play around with it a bit more but I think I may go back to finishing off my Revell Putty.
I've not tried automotive putty - I'll have to get some.

The Mig 23/27 is just so cool looking plane!
While I recently visited to Hermeskeil, Germany airplane museum, they had in total 3 different Mig-23:s there!
Especially the front-wheel and it's sort of "mudguard" (or whatever it's called) looks so special !

It is indeed a cool looking aircraft - and thanks for the picture, I was wondering what colour to paint the U/C and that helps a lot!

Really?
