Doug Nelson went to town building Trumpeter''s 1/32 MiG-3 in the striking colours of the 12th Guards Regiment winter scheme.

Doug,
I followed your build from start to finish. Your finished model presented here is simply a masterpiece.

I personally view a finished model by its overall visual presentation before added detail, and or corrections. And your Mig-3 is painted and weathered to the highest of standards. I really appreciate the fact that your weathering is not overly done, but more towards that "used but not abused" look that most aircraft had after being out in the field for some time.

Joel
