1/48 Heller Mirage IV A

[IanG]

I have now completed my Heller 1/48 Mirage IV A, depicting the exhibit seen at the Yorkshire Air Museum.
Quite a testing build, a real fighter, and my first attempt at a complete re-scribe (and depicting bird droppings!)
A bit annoyed with some silvering, on some of the decals. It didn't come to light, until after they were dry. More a case of operator error, than the decals themselves, I think.
Resin cockpit set, and wheels. Metal refuelling probe, and decals from 3 different decals sets, to get the correct markings. Painted with Hataka Orange Line lacquer paints.

Bravo!

That's an absolutely wonderful Mirage

I have been watching the buildthread and there is tremendous amount of work put into this build - and the result is surely stunning !
