Hi everyone!
Here is my Italeri 1/48 Mirage F1 entry, intended to be built as a Hellenic bird for a fellow collector and aviation enthusiast...

Here are the kit contents, the good old ESCI mold...

Started it yesterday evening, got some help in the way ...

Here she is so far, already first round of filler applied...

More to come!

Some filler, AB duct elongated using PVC tube, as it was irritatingly shallow...

...and landing gear preparation...

G’day Spiros (@fiveten),
Looks good so far. What will the scheme look like?
Spiros Pendedekas said 2 months, 1 week ago:

Thanks my friend @michaelt! Will be finished in the so called Aegean Blue over silver...

Great solution to the shallow exhaust, Spiro. Looking good. I just saw your nicely built Mirage 2000 on MM, Mirage mania!
Spiros Pendedekas said 2 months, 1 week ago:

Thanks my friend @j-healy! Indeed, Mirage mania (and a couple of Rafales to come as well)!

A beautiful blue tone for this F1

Great progress on this next one, Spiros (@fiveten). It is convenient that there is a size of tube that will fit as an exhaust. A happy coincidence that doesn't happen too often. The photo contains some nice detail for paint and weathering.

Spiros Pendedekas said 2 months, 1 week ago:

Ready for the paint shop, some work on some peripherals as well...
John vd Biggelaar said 2 months, 1 week ago:

Nice progress, Spiros @fiveten
Looking forward to the paint session.
