Koralik Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Another heavily exploited jet. After reviewing many photos from the location of Mirage IIIC (Djibouti), I decided to make a model using the photo below. The model straight from the box is basically the biggest challenge is painting the model to bring it to this look. I'm not sure if you'll like the model so tired.

Isar 30/07 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 WOW - this is superb! Didn´t knew the French used Mirages in Djibouti. Your model is inspiring me starting my F-100 in French markings servicing then in Djibouti! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeeBee Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Nice rendition of one of these well-worn machines ! Only nitpicking: too bad you didn't add any weathering on the decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ringleheim Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I am not sure which is better, the model, or the photography! Both are superb. This makes me want to build a Mirage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
