ericg Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 So I know I promised that there would be no more shots until the final photos, but I realized there were a couple more details that I hadn't done, so here they are! The tail has a small red light with a clear lense on it, either side near the top. I replicated this using 7 small parts of decals for each light. The nose gear flipper door when down should have a small yellow and black handle that extends out of the nose gear bay and is part of the pilots pre flight inspection as mentioned before. I just had to have that detail, so a small length of brass rod painted yellow and then black striped using some of the tiny black lines that divide each scheme on a Wingnut Wings sheet. I have mentioned before that this is great stuff to use for many projects that need thin black lines. It just peeks out when extended I have gone over the model with a fine tooth comb and come up with a list, I guess it is me just making sure that I nail everything before I commit the model to its final coat... not that it has stopped me from diving back in a conducting major surgery on a model before! Basically, everytime I think of something that still needs to be done I am writing it down. Jobs like painting the tanks! Whitey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hopefully this means we'll have some Mirage parts soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 This is going to be spectacular once it's all finished. Your Mirage really sets the bar high if anyone releases a new one. But I'm sure you're ready to get this one off the bench. Your builds are quite amazing, will be great to see your next project Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericg Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 Thanks gents. I will only do one more run of parts and then move onto other projects. Will advise when I am ready to accept final orders. Already have the next kit lined up after the mirage and am champing at the bit to get into it, so really want this one off the bench!
