Dassault Mirage F.1C fast build
Some filler needed.
On both sides.
Added some extra detail to the seat
Bare alluminium underside looks very cool on a mach 2 jet.
The white was only needed for some parts of the decal so this doesn't need
it's hard to bruch paint these small whit edges but it looks fine.
A test with masking fluid in the wheels but this didn't really work unfortunately.
Not my best work.
Some darker and lighter panal for some variation.
Same on the underside
Decals where amazing on this kit.
Rreally brings the model to life.
Oil wash from burned umber and lamp black. Used on the upper and lower side.
added the landing doors
Added the missles and ecm pods.
Masking wasn't the best. this is de better side.
Some varnish entered the cockpit on this side. very unfortunate but it's my onw fault.
Almost finished.

VincentThanks Ferenc and WhiteGlint. And indeed the blue colour is the reason I build it. Very nice to see on a mach 2 jet.

Album info
My first special hobby model. Detail looks good so I don't know of any modifications are needed. I Did make some mistakes along the way and this isn't my best model. I still enjoyed to build.
Modifications:
- hydraulic lines added on front landing gear.
Mistakes:
- Fogged up canopy due to farnish on the inside.
- Matt farnish didn't dry properly due to high air humidity.
