Cockpit painted and assembled yesterday evening and this afternoon.

It's been awhile since I did an away at work wip due to various problems with the ships Internet but it looks that’s all sorted now so here goes! This is the version I'm going to build....

Another recommended source for Mr Hobby products is... https://www.modeldisplayproducts.co.uk/index.php?route=common/home

Do an image search for the artwork of Don Troiani, plenty of inspiration there.

Thank you. Yes, that's my favourite out of the various schemes too.

Pictures are working for me, on Samsung Internet (Google). Absolutely amazing masking and paintwork!!!!

Thank you!

Thank you very much.

Thank you. 🙂

Thank you very much indeed! 🙂

Next one, this time from EC 2/10 "Seine".

Thank you very much.

Thank you. 😊 Thank you. Thank you Patrick, I'll keep a close eye on the exhaust nozzle on Mirage number 3. I'll check it on the second one but that one is almost finished so too late if it is the same as this one.

Thank you, there should be another one along tomorrow. I'll make a point of taking the photos in the same place. 👍🏻

From EC 3/10 "Vexin", Djibouti, early 80's. This is the first of what will eventually be four Hobby Boss Mirage IIIC's. The final one being a metal finish, the theory being I will have had plenty of practice by then. 😄

They look great Patrick, thanks for posting them. 👍🏻

Wow, that's amazing! What an incredible amount of work. What's next, the siege of 1683? 😉

I did! It's coming tomorrow. 😆

Very nice indeed Steve.... and kind of looks familiar 🤔😆.

Thanks. I actually thought I was going to have a struggle with the yellow lines, me and long straight decals don't always get on but these ones didn't cause a problem.

Mirage no.2, decaling in progress....

Thanks very much Patrick! 👍🏻

@72modeler @VG 33 Thank you. That's given me something think about. I think the best plan (only plan 😆) is to go for bare metal wheel wells and if anyone comes up with a definitive answer it won't be too difficult to mask the area off and spray them again.
