Hi everbody,

As a new member, below are some pics of the recent models I finished.
I am a slow builder, and don't have a lot of time for modeling.
I got a bit involved in the development of the 1/72 High Planes Models Mirage III scale 1/72, that's why there are quite few builts, and still some on the bench actually.
HPM is now working on the 1/48 Mirage III and again, I enjoy helping in this project.
Most of my subjects are military and had a go few years ago with a Revell 1/144 A340, and I really enjoyed it, have plenty of civilian aircrafts in my stach now, but not much more time unfortunately.

The pics:

South African A340 Airbus, 1/144 Revell







Spitfire Mk XIVe, Academy 1/48





Mig 25, Revell 1/48



Mirage F1 Italeri 1/48



Su-27 Flanker, Academy 1/48





Mirage IIIO, Italeri 1/48



Rafale C, Hobby Boss, 1/72



And a bunch of High Planes Models 1/72 Mirages, single and dual seats, ost of them built from test-shots:















Cheers,

Michel

Nice!

Love your work mate. They're brilliant.

Great modeling Michel, and even better Mirages, although I must say I was interested in an Argie Finger until I saw how really plain it is in the modern colours

A very diverse, interesting, and well-built line up there.
I do recognise the SAA A340 from Model Expo several years ago.
Thanks for posting.

Hi Michel

Most impressed with your builds - the Su-27 "Blue 06" most of all. Out of interest, what paints did you use? I've the big Trumpy offering to build one day - well, it will be probably less than 50% Trumpeter in the end!

Thanks for showing your brilliant work - most impressed!

Cheers

Adam

Thanks for all your kind comments

Adam, for the Su-27, I used the Enamel Testors paint:
2130 Flanker Pale Blue,
2131Flanker Medium Blue,
2132 Flanker Blue Grey

The 1/32 is on my list too, saw it for pretty cheap last time I was in Hong-Kong, will think about going with an empty suitcase next time I am going there...

Michel

Great collection mate. They are some very nice models you've done there

Thanks Mate

How cool is that Mig 25 Foxbat!!!
She may not have the elegance and sophistication of a Mirage .....but talk about about big, brutish, and purposful!!!
Just a "kick arse" aeroplane!!!
