Peter, Very nice work! I noticed in your final display post you express some sadness that the kit is sold out. Well, in case you didn't know, WNW is re-releasing it as one of their special's with a figure of Raymond Collishaw and his markings! We should be seeing them soon and I hope to pick up another one myself! Michael

I'm no expert, but weren't the waist windows on the F smaller top to bottom than the G? Michael

Excellent work so far Eric! A question to everyone working on this one, especially if you're doing a bare metal finish: Are you feeling the need to sand the entire surface due to the texture or do you think (or have you found) that priming does the job? I plan to use a black base myself on a bare metal finish. Michael

Ugh. Sorry I asked. Keep up the good work! Michael

Eric, Very nice work indeed so far. I may have missed something, but how did you fix the fit of the nose/radome to the fuselage? It doesn't look like you just sanded the heck out of it, so what did you do? Thanks! Michael

Looks like no Israeli markings in this release. Michael

Shahak!!! Sign ME up for sure! I'm definitely on board for a classic '67 MiG killer Mirage, and maybe one or two more (depending on if/when the later Atar conversion becomes available). And given how long I've wanted a IIIC in 1/32 scale, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt for now. Just hope it doesn't take years to materialize! Michael

Is anyone else concerned about the fact that the RAF markings have different colored roundels on the fuselage than on the wing? Michael

GROAN Don't quit your day job David Nice job on the pipes though Frank! Michael

Excellent work Kev! While I'd rather have a Mk.I/III or a Mk.8, it looks like Paul is hard at work on those conversions. Still, given how nice it looks, I could see a collection if the price(s) are right! Michael

Something doesn't seem right there with those different RAF roundels. Hope they fix that before release! I'm just not that into the Argentine markings, though they sure are colorful. Michael

Kev, Great looking work so far! FWIW Mosquitos during the war had seat cushions like that and they were a sort of bureaucratic green color. The one in the pics in the Datafile book looks like it's black (which is kind of boring, but probably correct.) Keep up the great work! Michael

Kev, I assume you mean 1/32 roundels, not 1/144 (WAY off topic!) I have some roundels from PCM Spit IX kits I could part with. They're late war C types but I believe at least some Mk.4s carried those. My PCM Spits are all Israeli so far, so I have leftovers. Michael

Looks like a pretty standard Sutton harness, though I may be wrong on this one. Michael

Excellent! Looking forward to seeing you work your magic! Michael
