Hello Guys,
First thing I want to say that THIS MODEL IS NOT BY ME!
Now lets continue. This model is made by one of the best paper modelelers in Lithuania, my friend also - Donatas Skiauteris. As Imentioned somewhere before, he uses non-sport technology (polish people, lithuanians and russians say like that). This is using various materials and getting far away from purist's standarts. In other words - major useage of plywood, balsa, foam, alluminium and so on..
By the way, I called him today and asked if I can post those photos and he said, "Yes, I think this Mig-23 is one of my better models and I am not ashamed to show it". He also remarked, that he regrets, that he doesn't have a digital camera and he would like to show the whole process of making wings and fuselage inside of foam, formers from alluminium and so on..
So this is one of his models. This Mig-23 stood for several past years in Gomix model shop in Byalistok (Poland) and not long ago, he took that model back. When Donatas visited me, he brought that model and I was so amazed by his work. The model was not only professionaly made, but it also was hard as rock. There's no way to damage it!
And... photos:
