Just bought myself a set of the mig29 colours for the GWH mig when it arrives.

They look great and are samples taken from actual faded aircraft.

Made in Russia I got them from Greece http://www.hobbycolours.com/

Will do a review when I've used them

only negative ive readv about them is they can be "delicate", easily scratched.. im sure a gloss or flat coat would fix that problem though

Cool! Do these guys specialise in 'Russian' colours? I've got a mig 21 waiting in the wings.

Yes that's one thing I have heard,but I'm usually pretty careful with paint work so hopefully will be ok.

Ordered on Tuesday night from hobby colours in Greece, just turned up now, excellent service.

Packaging is well cool, didn't want to open it

Brilliant colours on the migs. Can't wait to get this mig 29 and get it started, looking forward to using these for the first time too. Ill do a video of spraying these, when I'm building the GWH Mig
