Looks like you also modified the landing gear (height), right ? Exactly! I modified the angle of front landing gear fork.... a recognised problem of the Eduard kit.

I'm not agree... looking at the pictures ot the Mirage 259, I never seen a dirt or weatherd aircraft. For example: Thanks to G.Antìc e G.Kuntz for the images. I chooed the Semi Gloss Mr.Paint... but looking at the pictures, I should have done it chrome! Edited August 9, 2017 by starfighter84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying if it was during the war, it wouldn't be so clean. At any rate, I'm only teasing. Really dig the build 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay attention to the main landing gear, you also have to "trim" it to obtain the correct balance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildeSau75 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I did post already but looking again at this top notch model makes me saying it again: it's one of the best Mirage I have seen lately. Just splendid. Cheers, Michael 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
