Begemot Decals is an interesting decal company from Rostov-on-Don,
Russia that offers a nice array of markings for Russian-built
aircraft. In this release, they've provided THE most complete
set of stencils ever produced for the MiG-21. We've seen the
previously released 1/72 scale and 1/48
scale versions of this
set and I kept hoping that Begemot would produce their MiG-21
decals in 1/32 for the Trumpeter and Revell kits. My prayers
are answered. As with the previous releases, this set
provides accurate stenciling and placement instructions for:
MiG-21F-13
MiG-21PF
MiG-21PFS
MiG-21PFM (Block 15)
MiG-21PFM (Block 16)
MiG-21R
MiG-21SM/MF
MiG-21bis
MiG-21U
MiG-21UM
In addition, the set provides markings for the external pylons
and weapons including:
APU-7
APU-13
APU-13MT
APU-13U
APU-60-1
APU-60-2
R-13 series
R-60 series
Type D Reconnaissance Pod
Type R Reconnaissance Pod
PTB-490 External Fuel Tanks
PTB-800 External Tank
UB-16-57 series rocket pods
UB-32-57 series rocket pods
S-24 rockets
UPK-23-250 gun pods
PBK-500
ODAB-500P
FAB-500M
ZB-500Shn
The
decal printing is perfectly in register. The instructions are
printed on two sheets that provide decal placement for each
aircraft type and external stores placement.
If you're wanting to busy up the surface details of your Trumpeter
1/32 MiG-21F-13, MiG-21MF, MiG-21UM or Revell 1/32 MiG-21PF
or MiG-21MF, here is exactly what you've been waiting for.
The diagrams will also show you some of the key differences
in versions should you be contemplating some mods to your stock
kit to render a yet-to-be-produced variant. You'll at least
have the stencils for any of the production variants in this
set.
This set is definitely recommended!
