Woah more great stuff there Archie! I really like your work on the exhaust nozzle! She looks great in that white paint to! Very high-tech!

Thanks Brian and others for the cheers comments!
More pics, this time without dust  :D





King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

The Mirage is finished!!!
Here's some pics (with the F1CT cleaned :P )

Wow Archie that's some very very impressive work! I really like the blue wings and tail and the multi-national markings! I swear you top yourself with each new build! Wonderful! B)

Merchi!!!
The squadrons insignia are from the 324sq of the Netherland AF (F-104G) , the OCU of the Belgian AF (bloody F-16!) and the 30eme escadre of the AdA (the F1 itself)

I have to resurect the thread on the F1E (in alternative history) to show that to Alangua...

Next step on my  Mirage madness  : the MegaMirage!
I have the MiG-25 (the obvious basis for this project), the M53 exhausts, but not the Mirage IV (to kitbash with it)... but I know where to find one :)

MegaMirage (or Mirage -6000)

One hell of a cheese eating air arm you have there!  Fantastic stuff, Archi.

Thanks, Cthulhu (hope I didn't scorched it, where does it come from ? I'm curious!)

Maybe for the nose shape, Archibald, but that windscreen and canopy look to be directly off the CF-105 Arrow.

Hmmmm... maybe with a good paint sheme, I can change that (the Miragege already has V windshield, but not similar to the CF-105....
In the other case, I have to ask you guys (on the swap shop) for Arrow canopies because the Hobbycraft is quite difficult to find in France (even in Paris...)
Wait and see, others projects have "superpriority"...
