Kirk Olsson Mirage F1C-200

[l'iguane]

I started working on French Mirage F1CR, with a few liveries in mind.
Early WIP as of now, I merged my paintkit with some of the excellent paintkit hschuit released a while ago, for testing purpose, could be promising.

Very nice l'iguane. Somehow I always like the NATO colours.

Thank you Huub !
I have a few "anniversary" liveries in my plans, might look good but for sure they will be difficult to paint due to mapping of the 3D model of the F1CR !

Further mods and testing, fitted with IRIS Mig-29 gorgeous afterburner effect.

Another WIP

I like that one. Reminds me of the F-100's stationed at Djibouti.
I've seen it on a model kit box art but haven't been able to find a real photo.
Real or not it is still a great looking scheme.

Another WIP

Cheers,
Huub

No problem, I often like to search for the unfindable

. According to the text at the site where I found the last images, the aircraft is the Mirage F.1CR 33-NR No.603 from ER2/33 (which is obvious), normally based at Reims AB (BA112). The aircraft was involved in Operation Épervier in the Chadian-Lybian conflict 1987-1988. In which France supported it former colony.

And thank you l'iguane for another beautiful repaint!

Cheers,
Huub

Not bad for a 16 years old sim. As nice model, a talented repainter and some alternative ground textures and sky textures and it "almost" looks like MSFS

A Merry Christmas!

A mirage with bite

L'Iguane, thank you so much for your recent beautiful paints of Kirk Olsson's great Mirage F.1. They inspired me to get to grips with this a/c. The Shark nose is so effective on this stilletto nosed aircraft. A true warplane that has always been as aggressive and effective in combat as it looks. Thought it deserved a haiku of its own:

Non saw it coming
Flashing through the bright blue light
A nightmare's mirage

Looking forward to your French Air Force paint in NATO colours.
Happy New Year to you and thanks again.

Any chance you'll officially release your 118-CF repaint "100 ans de reconnaissance" ?

I found the MSFS version at the French Air Force website, somewhat converted it to DDS/FSX, but not sure if it's yours, or legit...

It already looks nice though! I'm not the only one hoping to fly it... Thanks!
