Mirage F-1CR

Alex
Nice kit. But don't use the colours recommended in the instructions, Gunze 337 is too light. I ended up removing the camo and doing it a second time...

That guy on the fin looks familiar 👍 thought of the very same project lately

Alex : Thank you very much for the information, I am studying this topic and continuing other projects first. A French modeler friend recommends H330 Gunze with a little H315 Gunze (gray) for Green. I will do some tests first for other grays and this mixture of green 😉

Great Lukasz !! This Mirage is really interesting I think too 🙂

Yeah, G330 looks fine for the green, the instruction mentions G302, which is too bright. Not sure yet about the grey, it looks like Revell "Blaugrau" or a darker grey looks spot on. I have a book about the F1, and the colours tend to change slightly over time.
