I was working on this last night. The proportions are a bit off in some areas, and it's still a work in progress but I'd say it's not a bad first attempt for someone who never builds planes.

Not bad at all. Perhaps make the fuselage a little longer and you'll have it.

Yeah I'm still working on that. I stuck the rear wing on just to get a feel for the finished product.
The nose isn't quite the right shape, but it's using building techniques I've never tried before so I'm very happy with it in that regard.

You built a Fagot*!
*NATO in the 1950s used some horribly offensive names to label Soviet hardware.

It does look a bit closer to a MIG-15 than an F-86. It's the nose, I couldn't get the shape right.

Looks like a Yak-36 to me.

To be fair, faggot (and it's various variant spellings, was a unit of measure from the late 1400s, and only recently has it been used as a pejorative.

I guarantee the NATO brass was thinking of the pejorative.
