Airfix 1/72 Scale MiG-17F. Full Build. Early Jets Group Build Entry.

Full build step by step of Airfix's 1/72 scale MiG-17 F "Fresco" in Vietnamese People's Air Force markings. Being a North Vietnam aircraft, this is technically a Shenyang J-5, license built Chinese version of the Russian MiG-17. Completed for the Early Jets Group Build hosted by ‪@ModellingWeekly‬.

This was a surprisingly tough kit for a 2019 tooling. I tried to still have fun despite the challenges and learned some new things along the way. A big thanks to Modelling Weekly for allowing me to participate.
