Hey guys,

Iv built up a mig-29 and spent quite some time painting it. Its a static model as the thermocol i used is very weak fragile and low density. My tenant had shipped some household appliances from pune and i decided to put the thermocol to use instead of throwing it away.

Il let the pics do the talking Smiley

Part 1: Plan and cutting sections.

All paint work was done using fabric paints with a paint brush - no spray paint.

Thankyou guys Smiley Smiley  Had to do quite a lot to keep the thermocol balls in check. The entire periphery is taped and painted over the tape. Smiley

hey bud nice model... I like it. I know thermocoal is not flyable alone as its very delicate.. I would use a very light weight celo tape everywhere to give it strength. You remember the way I did on the piper's wing. transparent wide tape should be good to give it strength and make it little heavy as well. An EDF in the back will give it enough power to cut through skies... lets meet sometime, this weekend was hectic Sad

PS. I saw colored celo tapes in vignan nagar.. I will post the review of them soon as I get them tomorrow.
