1/48 Revell MiG-25PD

This is the sixth kit that I've ever built since I came back to making aircraft models. I didn't know that KittyHawk had just released an up to date kit, so I used the Revell one and Eduard's Big ED.

I prompted this plan to ensure the characteristics of the MiG25 and didn't pay attention to the accuracy like the dimensions. What I felt was the most important point is such items as; 4 blades running alongside the air intake, exposed rod of elevator, R-40 big missiles, complicated structure of main gear and so on. On the contrary, most of the dimensions themselves like wingspan and the height of the fuselage or the mold line on wing were not accurate, I paid attention to what the MiG25 looks like but I didn't care about the accuracy.

Please enjoy.
