Hello there!
This is another Hellenic (Greek) subject in the shape of the Mirage 2000.
The kit comes from Heller in 1/72 scale and was quite good in overall
detail and quality with engraved panel lines and an acceptable cockpit.
I
decided to pose the model on a home-made stand because of lack of display
space!!! In this way, I can have a model "flying" over another!
Well, back to the kit now! The parts fit almost perfectly, so I
didn't use much filler. I made some modifications and additions using
aluminium foil and plastic card, especially all those air vents on the
upper and undersides of the model. I don't like using aftermarket sets, so
all improvements were hand made, as always. The model was airbrushed with
Lifecolor acrylics and quite heavily weathered, representing a very busy
Hellenic Air Force Mirage 2000.
Thank
you for your time
Thanos
