Cut and fill kit part No E17. Measure and trim the resin parts 2 and 3 so that you can glue between themthe kit part on any aftermarket cockpit you might use. Gluethe control panel A3 at an angle so the coaming E17 is sloping towards the nose following the fuselage line and the control panel is vertical.

Hello dear friends,This is my attempt to correct the utterly wrong shape and details of theTrumpeters MiG-23 BN kit in 1/48 scale. This is a multimedia kit and more efforts and skill are required to assemble it but I hope you will be satisfied with the end result. Carefully study the pictures, the parts and the instructions and make yourself a plan how to proceed best suitingyour needs and routine of building models. The panels lines are little heavy but will allow you to easily sand, prime and paint.

Happy modeling,

Stenka
