Ms Modeller Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Hello again! I finished my Revell Mirage F.1 last week. It was a bit rushed for a show (our club was split in 2 so we could attend 2 events, so I built a few things in a hurry to make sure we had enough stuff). I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. As usual if you want to read more about it or see more picutres please follow this link. A few are here The kit took me about 2 hours to fully build. 10 minutes to paint. An hour for decals. There was a bit of silvering due to a mistake I made, but I painted over some of it. *Edit* - Broken Pictures Edited January 9, 2018 by Ms Modeller Fixed the pictures link. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Hi Lex, to be honest I did not know Revell had a 1/72 Mirage F1 in their catalogue. You are really modelling a the speed of light! In my case change hours by years and you would be closer to the sad fact that I am a glacier in disguise! Your F1 actually looks very good. The only thing I would have changed would have been the pitot probe at the nose tip. But that's just me! Well done! JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob G Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Jean, the Revell kit is the early 80s Hasegawa, reboxed. It's not bad. Lexicon, that's a great job, even if it was done in a hurry. Well done, sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's made me buy a Hind in Tiger Colours - though that's white for the most part...and I DESPISE working with white...but I'm going to do it anyway!
