Hi all, here is my
Trumpeter 1/48 scale MiG 15 UTI . It was built out of box, cause there was a
lack of time. I just added some details in the cockpit like seatbelts. Despite
there was very good detailed RD 45 jet engine in the box, I decided to hide it.
This Trumpeter box was very easy and good detailed so there was no problem
to put all parts together, just few drops of putty. I chose No. 2514 which was
one of the last doubleseats serving in Czechoslovak Air Force (Hradec Kralove air
base). There are some differences between model and original, like squadron
insignia on the left front size of the fuselage and some other details. I am
planning to correct it soon:-)

I used Tamiya acrylic
colours and Mig production wash to make it more realistic.
Decals are from Propagteam sheet. There are not 100% accurate but I had no
time to search for correct ones (finally I found it but it was too late).
For engine, I used Alclade and Humbrol metalic colours.
I hope you will
enjoy this kit. ;-)
