rom1 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Hello Here a few pictures of my last build. I used the recent Italeri offering, with Musthave! resin wheels and seat. The whole build, paint and weathering process is detailed in the issue n°3 of the french "Cocardes" magazine: To go further, here is my box review on Cocardes websites:http://www.cocardes.com/2015/12/visite-guidee-du-premier-mirage-iiic-au.html And a walkaround:http://www.cocardes.com/2015/12/walkaround-du-dassault-mirage-iiic.html Hope you like it! cheers Romain 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huvut76g7gbbui7 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 That is very nice. The IIIC really suits that scheme doesn't it? Richard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattheCat Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Should I find back the issue of Air Fan magazine that contained an article full of pictures about these planes, I'm sure it would be spot on. Just great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhizhou Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Hi Rom Another stunning Mirage from you. I love it, you have achieved a superb scruffy, dirty grimy sun baked heat bleached finish. I wish I could get a copy of the Cocardes magazine to read more about how you did it. Your build is very inspirational and may just be what I need to pull me through mine. I'm making this kit now, but having a tough time with it. I have just joined the wings to the fuselage. The port wing join is fine, but the starboard side is horrendous. I don't know how I got it so bad. Did you encounter any bad fit with the nose, the rear fuselage and the wings? Regards, Zhizhou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redcap Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Magnificent and the camo is ultra realistic. I could run out of superlatives for this build! Gary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I'm not even qualified to comment on this, but I sure enjoyed looking at it. Perfection itself. Cheers, Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rom1 Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 hello thank you very much guys! Hi Rom I wish I could get a copy of the Cocardes magazine to read more about how you did it. Zhizhou Hello zhizhou! nice to read from you. You can get a copy here: http://www.cocardes.com/p/le-magazine-cocardes.html just wait for the n°3 to be listed. otherwise, try here: http://www.kits-discount.com/fr/magazines/catalogues/kits-discount/cocardes3-magazine-cocardes-n-3.html The text is in french. but there is a lot of pictures on 14 pages. I guess the magazine will have a stand at Hyères model show in october. And yes, the fit with the nose was horrible. Some work needed on the rear and the wing to get a nice fit. cheers Romain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
