discussion Academy 1/48: Mirage IIIc IAF

[Guest]

Hi guys!!!
More news from my workbench.
I have always been on fighting with metallic paintwork. Now the fairly simple Academy kit of the Mirage IIIc should become a new experimental object.
Painted with Revell 90 and Dark Aluminum from Vallejo.
The result can be seen here. My model shows an Israeli Mirage IIIc. It certainly works even better, but I am quite satisfied.

Have a nice weekend......:thumb2:

Fantastic work Stefan, I Really like the look of that paintwork.
But the mirage is not a plane I like the look of.

Stefan,
very good, - metallic finishes are the most difficult to achieve well! Strangely I agree with Ian - the Mirage is not an aircraft that appeals to me either

Thanks for your comments, mates. I'm glad that you like my new experiment in metallic paintwork.
But now it's time for a little break.......holidays in Greece (Kos)!!!:upside:

Cheers.....

Nice Mirage Stefan, looks to me like you've won the metallic battle. Unlike the others I do like the shape of the Mirage, just to be different
