Fujimi’s MiG-29 took me way longer than I had wished for. Procrastination was the killer of this build. Painting this kit was another “out of my comfort zone” task to take on. The preparation for each color was time consuming and tedious. As with the Stuka, the work was worth it. The digital scheme is an eye catcher, that’s for sure. This is definitely one that I will try again. Next time I will approach it a little differently. For one, I’ll use a straight edge to draw and cut the many lines. I did this one all freehand and it does show. I’m still happy with the results, but I want to make the next one look better.

A true modeler is never satisfied with what he has built. There is always something nagging him. I truly enjoy reading your anecdotes.

That’s true. I think it’s because we know the flaws in the build.

Model building is just like creating a masterpiece. We are never satisfied.
There is always something bugging us about the build, but no one knows except us.

I did not know about that paint scheme. Glad I found your blog.

I didn’t know about it until about last year. There are a few F-18 variants out there as well.

I know. The Canadian Air Force paints one a different color every year.

This is really gorgeous. All that hard work paid off. Did you mask it to do the digital camo? I must confess I’m not familiar with the insignia. What nation is that?

Thank you! I fully masked the plane twice and had to cut out every line. Very time consuming. This is a Slovakian MiG.
