Mirage des deux milles

built in the days when I thought ejector-marks were part of the aircraft's detail. Ho hum....

my rather 'lets have a go' attitude towards panel line washes and weathering....

Air Master pitot to replace kit’s lost one- will need to scratch build the re-fuel.

love her lines from this angle....

re-fuel just a random piece of undercarriage strut that nearly apes the original....so never used Master's NATO refuelling nipple in the end...am happy with the detail the plastic threw up.

with added scratch-built re-fuel probe

Looks like you lost your refueling tube at some point. Nice to see more of your builds.

@Skywalker: yes this was one of the builds pre-divorce that managed to make it!, I've been looking for an after-market alternative- do you know of any?

I have looked because I had such a problem with mine breaking, but I never found an after-market solution. I would think your best bet would be to fashion one out of stretched sprue.

Yep, just ordered a NATO fuel 'nipple' and will scratch the rest.

nice 👍 was also considering a gallery of all my builds in chronological order, early sins included

yes, I catalogue all my faithful attempts on here...stinkers through to "got it half-right"...I'm simply stunned at how some folks are able to do such tidy work in the 'one true scale'!...hence, just like in my real job, I have to say I "practice"
