Matt's CFK Mirage ***FINISHED***
Re: Matt's CFK Mirage
Thanks, all... nearly there now. Decalling almost done, and all the teeny tiny bits to break off are painted to be attached last...
I reckon as warplanes go, it's really hard to beat these classic NMF French Mirages with great, totally high-viz colourful unit markings for style and Cold War glamour...
bestest,
M.

Re: Matt's CFK Mirage
That looks wonderful.
I agree wholeheartedly with your comment about NMF Mirages. Classic Cold War warriors.
The only thing that comes close is the NMF Lightning IMHO.

Terrific NMF. Looks great in that original Armee de l'Aire scheme.

The buffed NMF has come out really well. I've seen people do this in the past and it hasn't convinced me, but the patina looks spot on.
