gengriz Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 This is what has been occupying my attention for the last 3 weeks (around my other 2 easier projects); an Italeri Mirage 2000D. The canopy has nearly driven me mad, and the nose shape is not yet right. Final oily wash and satin top coat to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary West Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Not till its finished and i have hidden all the horrors !!!!! Dont be daft, she looks ok to me. One thing though, looks like you've built an N version rather than a D. Italeri miss representing what's in the box by the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know i you're interested And yeah, bigger pics! Many thanks hatchet, I took quite a few of my own at RIAT so I think I am OK. The Fanakit website is excellent too. Italeri's kit claims to be a D, but is in fact the N K2 version 9with appropriate decals and another N based conversion used as the D Demonstrator. So, what I have built is a bit of a hybrid - no N pitot, but no D Flare launchers on the spine either! Here's a RIAT picture and a bigger version of the in-progress pic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary West Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 How can you tell? There are 2 obvious differnces between the D and the N which are usually very clear to pick out - Flare pack on the spine (which gives it a flattened appearance) and the tail of the D has more antannae popping out.

I knew about the cm-dispenser, but I thought it was on both the D and N. Live and learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
