    Well not a long wrong with that

    So tell me Mr Canberra, how many times have you wished that your paving slabs were to scale

    Ive just had a look through a dozen or so images of underside shots of 43 Phantoms and that area looks slightly shaded/darkenend which suggests the panels at least remained as original FG1 spec, then I found one image that proves they were where the hook is a lot clearer- that image is un dated but I estimate circa mid 1970s

    Quite amazing approach to building a model

    Im impressed already, will follow with great interest

    Very nicely done and well presented

    I'm hoping this is a T2/T4 release but easily rectified if it isn't

    I think its just the lighting and angle John, Im always up to be proved wrong but Ive never seen a T2 with a non standard nose, BAe, A&AEE etc included - do agree though that image makes it look odd

    Rene, I followed your build on Facebook and the finished build is awesome - your photography too is just as good as your build.

    Great trio Paul, I so wish we had a new tool Super Mystere available on the market in 1/48 of course
  13. Gary West

    I have Mirages coming out my ears, so I'm in this one

    Id much prefer someone like Special Hobby or Revell, Kinetic would supply as a 1000 pc kit!

    Perfect choice and great work

    As Cpl Jones used to say........"close those airbrakes" :-) Coming on nicely

    Ive only ever built the Airfix's HC1 so I can comment on other brands, but the Airfix kit seemed quite good - The HC4s are basically upgraded HC2's and externally the main visual differences are the lack of the "TV earials" on the nose and the addition of nose mounted FLIR - the other non visible improvements were avionics & Engines.

    Thats a cracker and beautifully presented and photographed too

    Yes I heard that but Ive also recently finished Kinetics Mirage III and a Belgian Mirage VBD (2 seat) both w/o weighting the nose - the main u/c is set sufficiently far back.
  21. Gary West
    I used Tamiya Acrylic paints and found them spot on straight from the jar XF61 Dk Green XF66 Light Grey
  22. Gary West
    No weight needed, the positioning of the u/c prevents the need for it - however if youd like to add some just in case, no harm done.

    Apart from stencils immediately below the cockpit which are yellow, stencilling is in Black throughout the rest of the aircraft. Im not aware of any dedicated stencil decal sheets for the GR5/7 but of course Hasegawa released the GR5 in 1/48 so it may be able to track decals down that way?

    Superb finish Rom, love that
