As in many
occassions, my wife purchased a nice kit during one of her trips to her
hometown. This time, a Mig-21 from Academy. A nice ly
detailed
and easy-going kit.
After a while
sitting in my stock ,
a group build among my friends was organized: all Migs
series. So, I decided to have an exotic Mig-21 which was easy to get
from Aztec Models. The "Weird Mig-21s" sheet proposed a
bluish Vietnamese version, related to the 921st. I actually found
and image of the squadrons patch which showed one of those giant asiatic
bats (the foxbat, I think).

I added a resin
set (Aires). After all, I nice project. I added a noticeable
weathering effect.
Though I am
not sure if such airplane ever existed - I couldn't find any valid
references besides the decal sheet - It looked to me as a nice
project with nice colors!
Hope you all
enjoy. Greetings from Mexico City!
