High Planes Models 1/72 Mirage IIIEBR Brazil

Hi Gents,

Just finished, my 1/72 Mirage IIIEBR.

I used a High Planes Models test-shot left over and the decals are from FCM. I don’t remember who gave me this decal sheet, but it is clear it was not new and got some issues to apply them as well as some silvering. I am pretty sure the new FCM decal sheets are of far much better quality and obviously, this decal sheet was not designed for the HPM, so had to find some compromise sometimes.

As usual, no big deal to built this model, just that I find that the parts are getting smaller the older I get… :|

Next one should be a Pantera, same brand, same scale. Working out how to paint the camo on this one…

I Know, I hsould built some liners too... ;) I should very soon actually ;)

What a lovely model of a fine French lady. Really nicely done Michel.
The canards make the Mirage look even more "kick arse".
Thanks for posting

Thanks a lot guys ;)

Working on the Pantera now, I believe it is one of the most impressive and advanced version along with the Cheetahs.
A quick and poor quality pic to show where I am at:

Looking good, (in fact quiet mean), at this stage.
