Ryan Posted March 16, 2023 Author Share Posted March 16, 2023 More tail work refinement and panel line restoration. The data probe is suitably blended and ready for my primer mask to “raise it” from the surface. The deeper river holes I will fill with Vajello primer to shallow them up later.

Cheetah11 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Hi Ryan Nice fix. Just a note, the protruding piece is not an air data probe but the antenna of the BF radar warning system. The tip is normally black. Cheers Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Nick Thanks Nick, once I get the positive primer mask on it it will be finished. Good info about the antenna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 Our Mirage is covered with air scoops and vents on the bottom and just about all of them need flash cleaned up. A couple of vents I got heavy handed on and had to fill with card. Gear wells feature great detail and I’ll get some paint on them soon.

Ryan Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 Remodeled a walk-in closet this weekend, but did get these painted, not sure yet on how much detail work is needed as most of it is natural metal. Finish is Vajello duralumin. CarstenB, Furie, Stokey Pete and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 I'm concerned it might not be the right color, could it be yellow zinc chromate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 @Furie Fantastic, but it seems I'm in need of a repaint on the nose gear well. Furie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alain11 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) hi the photos above show the Mirage III S gear bays , no real difference , except the color ... if you want to deeply improve the front ,and main gear bays , you should take a look here , you will find some inspiration ......just scroll down the thread Alain http://www.saairforce.co.za/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=9344 Edited March 20, 2023 by alain11 Furie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
