Hello

Here a few pictures of my last build.

I used the recent Italeri offering, with Musthave! resin wheels and seat.

The whole build, paint and weathering process is detailed in the issue n°3 of the french "Cocardes" magazine, released in June 2016:

To go further, here is my box review on Cocardes websites:

And a walkaround:

Hope you like it!

cheers

Incredible job !

The micro-painting really adds interest to the weathering.

 

And thanks for the very nice walkaround, too !

 

 

Very nice!

Good to see that you corrected the main undercarriage legs.

What do you mean exactly? I knew there was some corrections to do on the nose gear leg, but i dont know for the main ones.

Have a close look at the excellent walk around that Romain provided and you will see that the forward actuator rod on the main undercarriage is canted outwards instead of straight ahead on each leg. I also completed the mod on my SAAF Mirage IIIC.
