sunray Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Here is my 1/72 Mirage 2000 Fly Tiger. This was an out of the box build apart from the pilot (from Revell's Pilot pack) and the home-made stand. It was a straight forward apart from the Tiger decals which were a bit of a pain. You can see the build at http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234980531-172-revell-mirage-2000-tiger-meet/ 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3DStewart Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 There's an excitement and feeling of the speed and power of the real aircraft in your model that you don't often see. I like this a lot. Stewart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I've never built any Mirages and I'm not a great fan of Fancy schemes but that build has mellowed my view somewhat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Zen Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I'm surprised you mention it was a straightforward build: my experience with Italeri's 2000s is that they are dogs to build yet somehow end up looking half decent in the end. In this case it's an excellent model and the decals really give it extra punch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKguyInUSA Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 She's a cracker!! And, for such a large decal, that Tiger looks painted on! Cheers, Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kira666 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 (edited) Very nice kit. Applying decals on the tail isn't easy. Edited April 30, 2015 by kira666 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunray Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Thanks again guys for the comments. I'm surprised you mention it was a straightforward build: my experience with Italeri's 2000s is that they are dogs to build yet somehow end up looking half decent in the end. In this case it's an excellent model and the decals really give it extra punch. Master Zen to be honest I didn't think the kit was that bad but then again lately I have been building old Airfix kits so that could be the reason I might just be cracking up Very nice kit. Applying decals on the tail isn't easy. You are spot on the money, I think the worse part of the build was doing the decals; what a nightmare.
