A technical plan of the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15bis, drawn line by line in pen on 250gsm paper, at 11 x 17 in. A physical tip presses into the paper and lays down real ink. On the back, a serial number and date, plotted in UV ink in the same pass as the drawing.

The MiG-15's silhouette exists in file form everywhere. What doesn't exist everywhere is a single copy you can point to and say who drew it, where, on what day, under what number.

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15bis was the fighter that ended the era of straight-wing jets — when it appeared over Korea in 1950, its swept wings and heavy cannons outclassed everything the West had in the air, forcing the United States to rush the North American F-86 Sabre into the fight. More than 13,000 MiG-15s were built in total, including 8,352 of the upgraded 'bis' variant, making it one of the most mass-produced jet fighters ever flown.

At a Glance

  • ◆First flight, December 1947
  • ◆Over 13,000 built total

Each piece is physically plotted by the studio's precision robot in Québec City, using Stabilo® Fineliners and Sakura® Gelly Roll inks on 250 gsm (120 lb) stock — stroke by stroke, never printed. A physical tip presses into the paper and lays down real ink. The result is a tactile, hand-plotted finish — never printed.

Hidden signature

The CodeInk signature glowing under UV light on the back of a plotted piece

Real footage — an early production piece, shown under blacklight.

A signature only UV light reveals

On the back of every piece, in the same pass as the drawing, we plot a signature invisible under normal light — codeink.art, the piece's name and serial number, the year, and Québec. Shine a blacklight on it and it glows.

“Thirteen thousand of these were built, yet finding one plan you can call your own copy is harder than finding the aircraft itself. Hand-plotting it is a way of making one thing about it singular again.”

— Carlos, CodeInk.art, Québec

Open production, no duplicates

Each plot is made after you order, one at a time. The pen wears slightly with every hour of use, ink density shifts, and no two lines close at exactly the same point — nothing is corrected or hidden.

PERFECTLY imperfect.
