Fantastic look, and should be very visible in the air too.

Fantastic work! What were the exact colors called?

Great job on the mods

Golden Sunset, Regal Red, Gloss Black

I don't think these colors are exact matches to the German national flag.

Excellent work radfordc ! What does the underside look like, base grey or a repeat of the top surface?

The bottom is very much like the top.

JM, I was going to mod the doors as well. What material did you use to extend the inner portion and did you simply glue it on the the originals? It seems you would need some sort of stiffener between the two. Awesome mods you did.

I made my own hinges out of brass tubing and glued it into the foam of the fuselage so the door just swings up.

I noticed in another pic somewhere that you used a lever arm to mechanically actuate it with the strut. Are you happy with that operation or do you think a servo in the fuse would be better? Pre-thanks.

I use a Servo to pull the door closed and push it open.

Great mod, JM. Way better than the stock door! Really like the others you did as well.

[Airguardian]

That gear door mod is fantastic, can you share more pics on the servo installation?

Highly recommend looking at Yoda's mods, especially regarding wingtip washout.

[t33jetman]

The canopy gap had to be addressed.

Love my wife for buying me a backup MIG-29 for Christmas.
