Tbolt 1,770 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Your pictures don't show and when I try and view them on the site you've uploaded to, both Chrome and Edge say it's an unsafe site. Link to post Share on other sites

Tbolt 1,770 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Excellent work, looks really nice. My only criticism of the photo's now is next time could you make them a little bigger so we can see all that lovely detail better? Link to post Share on other sites

WildeSau75 1,201 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 what a lovely build - my only critique: it's not a Swiss Mirage III - what colors did you use for scheme? cheers, Michael Link to post Share on other sites

Andrés S. 1,074 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Hi mathy. You have done a magnificent job in all aspects. Very, very nice. It is not frequent to see a Spanish Mirage III so well reproduced, especially with such correct colors and with such an effective weather. I love it. Andrés S. P.D.- Have you published the assembly and painting process? It would be very interesting. I would like to know for example the reference of gray and green that you have used.

polybebber 213 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Exceptional build, superb paintwork and weathering - and excellent photography too!!! One question though: Does the kit have major fit problems or can one build it with a little ellbowgrease? Lothar Link to post Share on other sites

Lothar Lothar, there are a lot of fit problemsThe quality of the Mirage III is far away from other Kinetic kits like the F/A-18, the MB346 or the nice F-104. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
