About ready to put the cockpit in and seal up the fuselage soon.

I have about 9 books (downloaded to computer) plus limited access to a real Mig-21 but unfortunately it is a newer two seat version.... This one was shipped out last year to a museum in California

Side by side comparison of the Neomega cockpit next to the Trumpeter cockpit.

Ok, test fit and no problems yet. The picture on their instruction sheet looks different than what the Trumpeter part looks like at the axle but that may be a non issue.

It is a first for me, never had a set so will test fit that ASAP!

Ready to kick things off! Trumpeter kit, Neomega cockpit and Eduard Brassin wheels

My local model club is doing a Mig-21 build so where better to post progress..... Trumpeter 1/48 Mig-21F-13 in North Vietnam markings. Neomega cockpit and Eduard "Brassin" wheels. The resin goodies are new releases from both companies...... BTW, have not built a Mig-21 kit since the mid 1970's....

Just finished it up.

Adding some control cable rigging, aft control surfaces almost done, need to add the elevator tension cables and wing control rigging. Landing gear tension cables

It is my first WWI subject.....live & learn!

Making some headway, most of the decals are on

Working on the prop. Using oils to simulate wood grain.
