I forgot to put this in the ideas so it is starting "in progress".

Made a start with the cockpit and some weight in the nose, hopefully it's enough. 🙂

The Gnat had the canopy added, masked and then primer applied (light grey). I have painted the yellow with 3 coats of Vallejo Model Air Medium yellow and 2 coats of Hataka BS Golden Yellow. Next will be the tail. 🙂

Many thanks mate for your interest and like Sukhoi242. 👍

Guy Rump
Tail now painted black with yellow. 🙂

Nice Yellowjack!👍

Mr D
Good to see the yellow on it, dose look good in the yellow.
Takes your time on the landing gear, can be little fiddly.
Good stuff 👌, thanks for uploading

Guy Rump
Sprayed with gloss varnish and then added the decals. Next will be adding the wheels and other ancillaries. 🙂

Many thanks for your kind comments SM and Mr D, they are greatly appreciated. @ Mr D, The front landing gear was very difficult to get off the sprue so I know what you mean. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes SM & Mr D. 👍

Now completed, this is a Folland Gnat from the Yellowjacks display team based at RAF Valley, Anglesey in 1964, a forerunner team of the Red Arrows. 🙂 The last photo is a picture of the actual aircraft.

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Duster_d, JK, Franck D, Joseph L & Alex R. 👍

Another update on the Mirage. Despite my initial plan to make this a quick and simple project, I used PE parts for the cockpit and created rivets all over the model with improvised tools (saw blade). Then I had to fill some gaps along the wing roots and air intakes. The panels on the nose were also filled for the simple reason that they don't exist on the real counterpart. Final reveal coming soon!

Last update on the Mirage - I'll probably upload a detailed video about the building and painting process tomorrow. As you can see, it wasn't easy to get a somewhat realistic colour tone and I had to mix quite a few paints until I was satisfied with the outcome. A lot of weathering was done using enamel weathering products and oils.

Brilliant progress 👍 respect for spraying the AquaColours, I couldn't avoid clogging with them.

István Szücs
Nice faded colors!

★ Starfish ★
Thank you guys! Yes, I also avoid spraying Revell paints but unfortunately in this case they were my only option :/

Finished another project! Overall this was quite an enjoyable build, even though a few gaps had to be filled and it wasn't easy to mix the blue camo of the Mirage. As usual, all details can be found in my video! Youtube Video

★ Starfish ★
Thank you all!

Łukasz Gliński
Great finish 👍 Camo colours turned out great

Thanks Lukasz. It was quite tricky for me to come anywhere close to the real colours 🙈

Built this one mostly on an out of state work trip. Finally remembered to get it out and finish it up.

Marcel
Looks good, especially given that it's an easy click kit. Is it worth the money, because it's quite expensive for such a kit? Love the DB5 though, and the legendary Bond gadgets only add to that. I guess it's DeHart, Kyle DeHart now. 🙂

Alex K
Nice to see an Iltis here... good job! (For my part, I do hope ACE releases this also in 1:72...)

Bruce Huxtable
I'm liking the setting, to match your reference photo 🙂 Nice work 👍
