Looking good John. Are you going for a metal finish?

Fine looking assembly, John, and looks sleek enough to fly off the work bench.

Looking good John. Are you going for a metal finish? Yes, still don't know if it's going to be a Soviet or a Polish version.

And the wheels too are painted.

Thanks fellas !!
Well, I'm calling this one done.
The problems I ran into were simply my fault, not Eduard's or anyone else...
Removed the masks, got the wheels on, wheel bay doors. When I thought everything was ready, I noticed that I lost a few parts along the way, pitot tube on the wing and a small "T" shaped part under one wing. Can't seem to find them.
Also I noticed a few areas where I should have had more attention with gaps, specially the fuel tanks. And some of the paint didn't cure well near the right wheel bay.
I am not going back with to fix things at this point, I call it done. Got the base done, an old map from early 1920-30's. Couldn't find a map from Poland.
Positive sides, it's a very nice kit, plastic is good, decals are very good. I like when they have a small history of the aircraft depicted.
It still looks like a Mig-15, and it stands on all 3 Legs.

John, fine looking MIG-15! I like how you have it displayed, too. That's a great piece of memorabilia.
