Popular Post alex_stela Posted March 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 11, 2021 Another one to my "Falklands collection", this time 1:72 Mirage IIIEA, I-014, 1st Squadron, 8th Air Group Argentine Air Force, Rio Gallegos, May 1982. New Modelsvit kit, built "out of the box" except metal Pitot tube (Master) and squadron emblems decals on the fin (Condor Decals). Painted with Gunze Mr.Color C series. The Modelsvit kit itself is just great - extremely well detailed as for 1:72 scale, crispy molded, well fitted (although a bit complicated - definitely not for beginners). I think it was the best short-run kit I've ever assembled. "Work in progress" topic was on Polish forum: https://www.pwm.org.pl/viewtopic.php?f=884&t=90757 And now some pictures: Thanks for watching! 108 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Keg Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I like the way you were able to replicate the “wavy line” pattern between the upper and lower surface colors on the airframe and external tanks. The overall subject turned out fantastic. Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albymoore Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 What an absolutely gorgeous finish. This could easily pass for a much larger model than 1/72 scale. Cheers, Albert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
