Hello,
An old project, finished few years ago.
Heller kit, 1/48 scale.
Including very nice and accurate shapes ( and according to some, still far superior to the Eduard one for the front area...), rescribed, slightly detailed, with home made parts, and painted in "Vexin" unit colors (sand/chocolate).
Light weathering, and hand made dark rivets.
Located in east Africa. Eighties. Not completly finished, but almost ready to go a display !
Cheer's !
Modern (1975-today)
Discuss the modern aircraft age from 1975 thru today.

Very nice build Veliki!
The color scheme is really cool and the weathering is great.
Nice job.

Excellent and clean build. The cockpit looks particularly good. Any more pics?

Hello Oliver,
Thanks a lot for your comment.

It's nice to see a Mirage wearing some different clothes. I think the camo on this bird is quite fantastic! It's a very clean and well-done build.
Thanks for sharing those extra pics, too.
