starfighter84 567 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Good night to all! here the last birth directly from my workbench... an israeli Mirage III CJ! Base kit is the Eduard, but I used the resin set for cockpit and wheel bays from SBM. Other details are from Eduard photoetched set, pitot from Master. For the natural metal finish I used the Aclad Lacquers and Mr.Paint semi gloss for the final coat. The decals are a mix from the kit and Isradecal set. Hope you'll enjoy. Cheers from Rome, Italy!

Rabbit Leader 13,186 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 That is simply one excellent and flawless finish. An amazing build of probably the best looking aircraft ever produced. Congratulations - this now sets the bench mark for NMF I think! Cheers.. Dave 1 Link to post Share on other sites

shakakoz 6 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 As others have already mentioned, the aircraft has a flawless finish. But what I want to complement you on is the photography. It isn't easy to capture models the way you have. The resulting photos really bring the aircraft to life. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
