Restauravia, Mirage IIIC version 1.0!!!!

odourboy said:
really enjoying this aircraft - thank you Restauravia! Working on a Swiss livery for the Mirage here also. Trying something different - I used some hi-rez photos (public domain only :a1310:) of a Swiss Mirage III S to concoct this fictitious livery for the C. Work in progress. Not sure that I'll bother finishing it because I took a run at this just to see how it would turn out. But I got some nice screen shots so here you go...

Brian it looks very good. Only two remarkable things!
1) the swiss IIIS nose cone was dark grey, not black. Just wanted to say :D
2) what font you used for registration?
Thanks! She's a beauty. I want to fly it! :)

P.S Zsolt what are those links?

Thanks Miro!

I wish I could help you with that font, but it was taken directly from a photograph of the S, so I don't know what it actually is.

Your 1st remark hints of why I'm being a bit coy about finishing and releasing this livery. I took it on as an exercise to see if I could use photos rather than the paint kit to build a livery. Some parts I'm really happy with (where I could get hi quality hi-rez photos with even lighting), but in areas where I'm off the mark - nose cone for example, but in particular, the camo pattern on the forward section, has proven to be quite a challenge to get right and sucking up more time than I intended to invest. Anyway, I'll continue to poke away at it for now.

A little more friendly (I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I hate links that immediately start a download to my machine):

You must have been reading my mind this weekend Zsolt. I was thinking a bare metal and camo Mirage IIICJ would be nice. And #59 to boot. Thank you!

Miro - I was poking around a bit and there's a font called 'Amarillo USAF' that is very close (the number '2' is off, but if you can avoid that one, you'll be in good shape!)
 
Yes, The Amarillo USAF it's the exact font -which was used for the IIIS after refitting in the 90' and now for the Tigers and Hornets- so you're perfect right. :D
I used it for my J-2201, The problem is that the reg font seems to be not the same for the IIIC, closer to them used for Vampires and Venoms... :banghead::banghead:
