Thank you Martin. I always try to make a small diorama with some figures to bring life to it. Nice gun-camera film!

Thank you for the compliment Gary!

Wow, what a great looking Mirage. The paintjob is stunning and very contrasting. You see, all the extra work paid off at last and I raise my hat, to you being tough enough to fight the very bad base kit.

Cheers Rob

Thank you for the compliments Rob!

This was really a bad base-kit and I think the challenges you have with such a kit help to improve your modeling skills. And I think we all kind of love these challenges, don’t we?

Thanks for the big compliment Kevin. I won’t put it in the contest in Telford because it’s part of the Mirage SIG (and I don‘t think it’s good enough to win a price in a contest…)

Oh I bet it would Kai you think it's that far off maybe then it might take 2nd/3rd everything to me is spot on.

 

Have fun at the show!!

Kai, yes it is !......harv

Congratulations Kai!!! What a wonderful result. Flawless work down to the last detail.

What's next on the list?

[Kaireckstadt]

Thank you Craig! I still have to finish the little diorama for her and then will start a Dambuster-Tornado with electronics from Magic Scale Modeling. Will use the Italeri kit.

As promised Hubert: 

It‘s finished now:

Already started with the diorama-plate and will add 2 maintenance crew and their tools:

I think they fit perfectly regarding era and clothing for the hot environment. 

Thanks for following my build, for all the positive and critical feedback and the tipps. It’s really a great community here with lots of awesome modelers. 

Cheers

Hi Kai, my model is progressing well, I will post some pictures very soon, but I have question for you, could you please post an other picture of the canopy positioned in open position? I'm struggling to understand how it's fixed to to the cockpit. Many thanks in advance. Alberto

Yes, very helpful! So that stem from the back of canopy goes through the hole behind the seat!
