Nice Mirage.  It looks really good in that Finnish camo.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

Turned out a corker Brad!  Where'd you get the Tukilentolaivue badge from?

Looks great, I'm definately a lover of winter-cam! :ph34r:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Thanks guys.  Mav, the badge and the rest of the decals came from the newish Revell 1/72 Mig-21F kit.  Had to modify the badge though.  It shows a Mig-21 from head on which looks a lot like the Mirage except for the Migs horizontal stabs.  Out came the black marker and white paint and BINGO! a Mirage.

BdB, thanks for the cockpit comments but I must confess.  All decal with a True Details MB MK.7 banger.  Nothing fancy at all. The kits cockpit was so basic I wanted to do something to dress it up.  Same for the tailpipe.  Just a big hole with a blank a few mm down and no detail on the inside of the nozzle.  Popped out the blank, found something engine-ish to put down there and went after the nozzle with a file.  I'm real happy the way it turned out.

Thanks again!

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?
