MiG-29, Jet Nozzles (opened) Detailing set (Resin, Photoetch) Scale 1:48 (Recommended for kit: Great Wall Hobby) Metallic Details MDR4837 - For Models Aircraft Kits

Metallic Details MDR4837 is a mixed-media jet nozzles detailing set (opened) for the MiG-29 in 1/48, recommended for the Great Wall Hobby kit. Open nozzles draw attention on a finished model, and the combination of resin parts with photo-etch supports thin petal edges and cleaner internal structure.

This is an upgrade set only (the aircraft model kit is not included). Use it to refine the exhaust area while keeping the rest of the airframe build unchanged.

The MiG-29 is a twin-engine aircraft, and exhaust details can vary by kit engineering and version choice. Treat nozzle depth and mating surfaces as kit-dependent and confirm the “opened” look matches the configuration you want for your build.

For modelers: dry-fit the exhaust assemblies to the fuselage early and check circular alignment from the rear—small offsets are easy to see on twin nozzles. Sand mating rings gradually to keep both nozzles at the same depth. Paint interiors and petals as subassemblies, then add photo-etch near the end to avoid bending; use thin coats so petal edges stay sharp.

FAQ

Is this set intended for the Great Wall Hobby 1/48 MiG-29?

Yes. MDR4837 is listed as recommended for Great Wall Hobby and targets the MiG-29 exhaust area in 1/48.

Do I need to modify the kit exhaust opening?

Sometimes. Dry-fit first and remove material only where it prevents the resin parts from seating evenly and at matching depth on both engines.

How can I keep both nozzles aligned on a twin-engine model?

Work in parallel: fit and adjust the left and right assemblies together, and check rear alignment on a flat surface before the bond fully sets.
