That was a good question, had to google it and found that it stands for

Uchebno Trenirovochnyi Istrebitel (don't ask me how it's pronunciated though)

Meaning sort of "Educational Training Fighter", so UTI should instead be in English more or a less ETF.... Mig-15 ETF

Great stuff Kari - that looks superb!

The Matt coat after decals would have been my suggestion too.

Awesome work on such a small model. My eyes couldn't take building something like that.

Magnificent work Kari! That cockpit looks like a 1/48 scale aircraft! Great job on the metal finish; you seem able to get a far better coat on the first try than I do. Way to go!
