This is one more MiG
in my collection. The KP kit provides a good shape of MiG-17PF, with quite poor details and small
parts.

I rescribed the
lines and some of the rivets, but saved most of the rivets as original. At least
to me, those rivets make the MiG-17 look more like the taste of 1950s. What's
more, I
cut some of the canopy because it seemed too big to me.
Extratech PE set from
Czech helped a lot, and I also borrowed the landing gear from the Dragon 1/72
MiG-17F. Just to save time.
I chose the one
flown by Wenli Wang, PLAAF. Wang shot down a ROCAF (Taiwanese AF) P-2V7 above
Linchuan, Jiangxi Province, China, on June 20,1963.
It was the very first time that ROCAF P-2V7 was killed in an airbattle (One had
been shot down by AA cannon on November 6,1961), and the pilot Wenli Wang was
named of "Night Hunter" later.
Hope you'll enjoy my
work. (You can also check the in-progress thread on ARC forum.)
