Completed Mirage 1/48 Lublin rxiii

[yak face]

Heres the Lublin finished , not a bad kit , but sparse in the interior but a couple if unsuspecting volunteers filled the holes nicely . No decals with the kit so spares box raided and a captured romanian machine is the result . Build thread can be found here https://www.scale-models.co.uk/threads/mirage-1-48-lublin-rxiii.40531/
All comments welcome , cheers tony

Lovely job Tony. Interesting subject and the pilots are excellent. That’s a huge wing though….not just wide but thick cross section as well.

Thoroughly enjoyed the whole build blog Tony,and these extra pictures really do it justice
Tis a rather nice looking plane,in a strange kinda way!
Good stuff

That's a great finish Tony

That has come out very well indeed. An unusual and colourful model. The figures fit really nicely.

Beautiful job Tony. You really know how to get a great result from a not so great kit. The windscreen really is a nice bit of scratch building and the markings (albeit a route you were forced down) are a great choice.

Cheers paul , i enjoyed it , probably because it was such an obscure aircraft and an older kit. The romanian markings always look good adding a bit of colour to any scheme , cheers tony
