Here are some pics of Vladimir's MiG Ye-8, an interceptor from the early sixties and a derivative of the MiG-21. Two prototypes were built. This is the second one, the Ye-8/2.

The original model is avalaible here in the download section as a white model and a color one.

I resized the white model to 1/200, cleaned the canopy, changed the wings and most of the undercarriage. Actually mine is too short! I have to lengthen the legs of the main landing gear before I build the Ye-8/1.

The last pics show the Ye-8/2 with my first test-build and an FT-7 I used as a testbed for the missiles.

Merci, Jean-Paul.

I also buit one of Rawen's MiG-15UTI but it was a pre-release model (it was too short). I should build the final version now (and change the landing gear of the Ye-8.)

I'm curently designing a Mirage III (E/R for now). Here are some pics of the most recent test-builds.

It will be a good thing if your new model is desinged on Gagarine's Mig colors...(I never seen it )...Say me when you had finished. :wave:
A bientôt Jean-Paul
