MIG-15

You may have spotted this 1/144 MIG-15 lurking in the background in my recent MIG-21 posts.  This is the second of a pair of such MIGs (which go by the entertaining NATO codename of FAGOT....) I have built.  Sadly I built them sufficiently long ago that I can no longer recall the name of the maker of these plastic kits.
Like it's twin, I have finished this model in North Korean markings as part of a project I have on the back burner.  So far back that the gas may have gone out.

It's Fag-tastic Tim. Where did you get the decals? (If not supplied in the kit).

Thanks for that chuckle. The decals were indeed part of the kit - which is made by 'Attack'. http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/ATK14404

That's because Paul hides them all during your games!

Nice looking jet....I think the NATO codes were just to piss the Russians off, although I hear if we gave them one they liked they would use it themselves...)

Sadly it's true...

I think there may be something in that! Flogger, Foxbat, Fencer and Bear are quite cool. Badger, Cock and Clank somewhat less so.

Gotta win somehow, right?

Apparently true about the code names. Russian pilots used Fulcrum because it was 'pivotal' to their air defences !
