Hello Carlos

Keep up the good work my friend. It looks great. Don't know how you find time and patient to make this stuff

Brazilian air force scheme looks great and with a plus of great visibility.

Regards

Nuno

Hi Carlos,

I would like to buy a Mirage III E from you when you have finished the kit, please let me know when it will be available. I flew the real thing and I want to build one in SAAF colours.

Regards,

Very nice. If you made the B model twin seater I could mod it to build this. Used to belong to a friend (in red helmet). Now owned by Denel and the rest sold to Equador.

Hi Peter & Co:

Yes the Mirage is 3098mm and your F-16 is 2960mm, right ?

The next week I will have the mold of the back fuselage ready.

Regards from Spain.

Hi Peter:

I have ready the front fuselage mold, I need repair a little fails in the gelcoat, nothing important. Them I will take a photo.

Thansk for your words over my Blog. This year I have less free time and the jobs are more slow, but in the correct way.

As soon as possible I will put more photos.

Best Regards from Spain.
