MiG-17 Syrian Air Force

Hello there.  Here is a quick build I finished for my own collection.  The model is the great Cyberhobby/Dragon MIG-17.

I really enjoyed working on it.  Everything fits perfect.  The cockpit was upgraded with some scratchbuilt details like seatbelts gunsight and plumbing.  Also the canons and machineguns were made out of hypodermic needles.  The pittotubes are sawing needles.  

Some rivets ware added here and there just to improve the realism of the model.  Gunze acrylics were used for the painting.  The decals came OOB.
