50mm edf Mig-15

This is a documentation of my 50mm edf Mig-15, this started out as a plane to test skin unwrapping and evolved into an exciting project.

the trick to getting pepekura to work was using a surface and not a object.
This software is really nice when it works, it tiles it and everything, but you cant export without paying for the full software, and sometimes it just doesn't work and I had to use blender for some pieces instead.

Pepekura does allow you to print though, so you can still use it.

This is what it looks like when it doesn't work
It's a wing panel, in case you cant tell.

Here she is!
Went together ok, but there were a couple of rough spots I would like to fix
It's not done yet, either, I still need to do servos and the top wing skins as well as spars.

and yes, the hatch seams are that bad

Yes, I just started on the unwrapping today, the mig is mostly done now, so I should have more time for the Gee Bee.
