nice!
i post my mig like that when im done.


Long story short, I was making the B-17 based the time I was in Memphis Belle (It came to my local airport) and the model Skill level 1 B-17 I had made(It was Memphis Belle as well). I named this B-17 No Dogs Allowed, and the tail # is my Blockland ID.

PS- My garage is the factory. The workbench is the assembly line. I am the worker in the factory. When finished, the aircraft are shipped to a distant land called my room to wage war. Who will be hanging from the ceiling first?

Oh and did you read this? When your landing gear broke.

That sucks, but I got an idea for you to make it work. If you cut off a piece of the frame of the plastic thing holding all the parts for the airplane (EX: next to the left wing of my stuka in my picture), you can glue it to the broken piece, or tape it with modeling tape. This would be a permenant solution, b/e it will probably not fit back into the plane D:

PS. I think that I am going to use painting tape so that I can get straight edges on the planes when I paint them.

Yeah, but I didn't quite do that because it was a tiny piece. I actually stuck the gear about a centimeter into the hole it was supposed to go in, it doesn't look any different and it aligned with the main gear so I'm happy :D

Sweet. anyway. . .

Mikoyan-Gurevich Mig-21
"fishbed"

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 (Russian: Микоян и Гуревич МиГ-21; NATO reporting name "Fishbed") is a supersonic jet fighter aircraft, designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich Design Bureau in the Soviet Union. It was popularly nicknamed "balalaika", from the aircraft's planform-view resemblance to the Russian stringed musical instrument or ołówek (English: pencil) by Polish pilots due to the shape of its fuselage.[2] Early versions are considered second-generation jet fighters, while later versions are considered to be third-generation jet fighters. Some 50 countries over four continents have flown the MiG-21, and it still serves many nations a half-century after its maiden flight. The fighter made aviation records. At least by name, it is the most-produced supersonic jet aircraft in aviation history and the most-produced combat aircraft since the Korean War, and it had the longest production run of a combat aircraft (1959 to 1985 over all variants).
