Well, I needed a foe for my earlier build of Bryce's A-7 so I undertook his MiG 21 in a white repaint. Just like the real plane, it's a straight forward, tough, economical build. Probably ran me under $40 with only two Bricklink orders. I had to (...) (19 years ago, 3-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.military)

That's really nice. My first thoughts were of the old Tente ships - yours really looks like a ship because of the smooth hull.
