1/48 AMK Mig-31BM/BSM Foxhound

While building the Meng Super Hornet decided to start on another big subject the big flying Soviet Brick . Pretty much my favorite Soviet Aircraft besides the Mig-25. This will be my second Foxhound build . This kit is just beautiful . Started off with getting the interior primed with MrFinishing Surafcer 1500 black. Then sprayed the MRP Rrussian Cockpit Turqoise color. The fit of intakes and wheel wells is excellent. Still have more wheel parts to clean up and get ready for primer. Got the twin Solovyev D-30F6 turbofan engines clean up and now ready for primer

Nice work so far!

Several hours later and here is where I am at with the Solovyev D-30F6 turbofan engines and intakes . Primed parts with Mrfinishing surfacer 1500 black . Then instakea sprayed with Alclad steel . Center section and rear fan blades sprayed with MRP burnt metal . Forward compressor section sprayed with Alclad steel . Green areas are the MRP Russian tire hub green . Forward compressor section sprayed with Alclad stainless steel . Rear burner section now will get the weathering . Which will be done with Tamiya acrylics and nato green for some of the weathering of the green on hot section . This will take maybe a few days . Intakes will now be ready for assembly . Stay frosty

Well after few hours today here is where I am at with the Solovjev D-30F6 turbofan engines and intakes . I used a mix of Tamiya paints for the weathering in the burner sections I play around spraying and respraying forth to get the look like the real thing . I am pretty happy with the results . Next to primer and paint the wheel wells . Hope you all like
