RNZAF Mirage III

[KiwiZac]

Hi all,
A quick and easy whiff of the Academy 1/48 (allegedly) Mirage III into a Kiwi one with Ventura decals.

The RNZAF apparently looked at the Mirage III before going with the Skyhawk, in this timeline we went with the delta instead. Aaages ago I did the Tamiya 1/100 in the late-90s green-green-grey, so I felt the SEA-scheme would be a nice change! I got the kit in a post-Xmas sale - Academy kits are already the cheapest on Kiwi shelves - with the intention of doing a IIIO, but I figured I'll get the new Kinetic kit for that.



Thoughts and critiques welcome!

Next up is a 1/48 prop fighter.....

Nice model! Congratulations!
(it seems the basis is a IIIC not IIIE, yes?)

[nighthunter]

Very nice!

[KiwiZac]

Thanks gents!

Tophe - quite right, the Academy kit says IIIC on the box.

Nice to see another Mirage (pun intended)!

Very nice Zac ! Love the Mirage III and with that camo and markings ? Even more so !

[sandiego89]

agreed- nice color choice. 

[Dizzyfugu]

Nice! Maybe needs some code numbers and a squadron badge?

[NARSES2]

Yup very nice job. Suits the scheme

[KiwiZac]

Thanks all! Dizzy - quite right, that's all that's left to do.
