dams301 Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Thanks you all What MB version is the seat? It's a MB Mk4 (resin copy from an unknown maker) of a Mirage IV started a few years ago. Not sure if it's this good version for the Kfir, but it make illusion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

the_baphomet_00 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Hi all, My first model for 2014. This is the Kfir from Avant Garde Model Kit build from the box except ejection seat, decals (from Aztec)and access ladder (from Mirage F-1B Kitty Hawk) Hope you like it Damien Hi Damien! Excellent finish! You have captured the original appearance and colors of the Colombian Kfirs in their early days of operations..... btw, did you use bottle paints color or mixes for your kfir?

dams301 Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 Thank you all, it is a pleasure to see that this model is appreciated :) The_baphomet, I'm a real lazy for painting so, as much as possible, no mix. I used those colors : - Gunze H301 for the dark grey - Gunze H73 for the green - Gunze H338 for the light grey - Gunze H329 and Humbrol 56 for the access ladder Hope this will help you ;) Damien Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Motta Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Great result! How about the kit? What impressions do you have about it? I have the same kit and I am intending to start it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dams301 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Thanks For the assembly, it's very easy (there is no trap and in an afternoon the kit can be ready to paint) and don't need putty (or very few). For general forms, the kinetic is better IMHO but its assembly wil not be as easy. Another thing I forgot to mention is that I replaced the AMK canopy with one of a Heller Mirage IIIC, better in shape Damien Edited March 5, 2014 by dams301 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
