1/48 Revell MiG-15bis

Here are some pictures of my MiG-15bis. I bought this kit for 5€ on ebay. Actually I wanted to build a correct model of a MiG-15bis, so I scaled a drawing in 1/48 and compared it with the kit and... what should I say -> not even the angle of of the swept wings is accurate...so I decided to build this kit straight out of the box, just for fun.

The highlights of this kit are the Pilot figure and the decal sheet.

I think I'll display this jet in starting position, shortly after takeoff on a little board with an airfield imitation...perhaps it will be a nice eye catcher.
