Mel Roy built this 1/48 MiG-21MF Profipack. His comments are below

YELLOW 17 - Azerbaijan MiG-21SM from the early 1990s.
1/48 Eduard MiG-21MF profipack. Lots of Eduard extras, and few bits scratch built or 3d printed. Decals by Linden Hill. Paint is mainly Tamiya, but I also used some Mr. Color paints and AK metallics

Your Feedback:

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on my recent ordering experience which was fine.  I just realized that Kitlinx is Great Models reincarnated!  Having served 25 years in the military and with the constant moving and  relocation, Great Models was always my go-to for kits and hobby supplies so it gives me great peace of mind in knowing I am dealing with a reputable, honest person.  I know that I will be ordering again from you in the near future (pending approval from Household 6 - my wife - of course).  I also look forward to providing reviews of the products I have ordered as well.  I do have one question.  Gunze Mr. Hobby Aqueous was my go to paint for many years (I ordered quite a bit from Great Models many years ago).  Is there any chance that Kitlinx can stock this brand.  Currently I use Vallejo, but they are delicate and temperamental.  I also dabble with the Mr. Color range and while durable and spray beautifully, being lacquer based they stink and after a spray session, I start to see flying elephants.  Mr. Hobby provided a super durable finish but thinned wonderfully with common rubbing alcohol.  Any chance on reintroducing the brand?

Please keep up the great work!

Kitlinx has provided me with hours and hours of hobby enjoyment by providing me all those hard to find aftermarket parts from all over the world. During trying times it is awesome to have a reliable friend in Kitlinx. Thank you for what you do, you are my go to hobby supplier.

Very, very happy to have Kitlinx here in the USA. The arrangements with European manufacturers is especially sweet.  But that Sweetness should be tempered with patience. If available, but currently not in stock, Kitlinx has to order. 

Very happy as now I have my Quickboost 1/72 oxygen cylinders for my  Brother's C-87

Search Tips:

[Kitlinx is still working on its LEFT COLUMN searches. This work will be completed as soon as "Kitlinx-on-the-clouds" is working smoothly]

Let me add some "tricks" to the POWERFUL search engine of Kitlinx (the SEARCH BOX at the TOP of the website). Below are the KEYS to search ~ 80,000 available products (63% in US, 37% in Europe)

1. Use the top box search on Homepage

2. Use several keywords separated by spaces to zero-in your search "1/48 spitfire aircraft_model" (59 kits)

3. Use the underscore "_", like armor_models or Tamiya_ or aircraft_accessor "1/48 spitfire aircraft_access" (456 accessories)

4. Use keyword "instock" to JUST search for in-stock items  

5. If you are searching for SALE items, use the keyword "~special~"

6. Don't forget the Manufacturer's link on TOP of each Product-Page. It quickly shows ALL available product from the same manufacturer

7. DO NOT use the asterisk "*"
