Looks superb now Nick, the colour really sets it off now. Love the nice touch of a US zap  :thumbsup:

Should look rather mean on a stand in its low level flight profile about to launch an Exocet

It just looks so right!   :thumbsup:  You know I never noticed it before but in those colors, the Super E bears a striking resemblance to a F11F!  Think I know how to paint the one in the stash now  :mellow:

Lovely job, and credible too, since the RAAF bought the Mirage - nice one! :thumbsup:

Looks like an idea that should have occurred in the RW.

Guess I'm a bit late, now, but here are some pic's of VF-805 Skyhawks with their 2 main tail liveries. I would have thought the Knight (chess piece) against the red-&-white "checkerboard" would have looked good. ;)









Ooh, look! A Mighty Grey Grumbly (or 3)! ;D :thumbsup:

I gave that some serious consideration but ended up feeling like the combination would look a bit too 'busy'.  At some point I may take the time to turn the red rudder into a red/white checkerboard though. 
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

How about a RAN Viking to provide radar target marking for the strike Etendards ? ;)

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That looks pretty cool.  It just looks "right" in those markings.
Man, we should have cloned twenties. Jackson wouldn't have given a poo-poo.
