Hajo L. Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 My current project is the superb kit of the F.1 Mirage by Special Hobby in 1/72. I hope you guys don´t mind that I will do a "What If"-bird in this case, as I need some rest before I will tackle a project that will very likely be ugly (Mach2 Learjet...). This is the kit as it looks today: I like the fact that the kit includes many different options, having alone 4 ejector seats (ok, 2 different pairs)... HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I've seen people achieve incredible results from this kit. Check out Mike Grant's excellent work on the 72nd Aircraft forum site, for example. It looks like a fun kit, do enjoy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hajo L. Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Do you have a link for me? And you are right, de kit is excellently modelled and a treat to assemble! HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hajo L. Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 The fuselage was closed pretty soon... Details of the kit are crisp and fine, really love what modern kits can offer! HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Do you have a link for me? And you are right, de kit is excellently modelled and a treat to assemble! HAJO Evidently, this is a popular kit on that forum! But here are few, all from the last few weeks. http://z15.invisionfree.com/72nd_Aircraft/index.php?showtopic=8277 http://z15.invisionfree.com/72nd_Aircraft/index.php?showtopic=8276 http://z15.invisionfree.com/72nd_Aircraft/index.php?showtopic=8274 http://z15.invisionfree.com/72nd_Aircraft/index.php?showtopic=8283 I would encourage you (and any other 1/72 builders) to join us over there.

Hajo L. Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Thank you, but how am I supposed to do any modelling if I´m browsing forums all the time...? ;) Nice pictures, though, thanks for the links! Back to my Mirage: It´s a tailsitter! I somehow sensed it (nothing mentioned in the instructions), that´s why I´ve left off the nose. So I put some lead into that and attached it to the fuselage: Perfect! Just some details and it´s ready for painting! HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
