Looks like an told kit John, but I reckon

you'll pull a good 'un out of it.

Cheers

Now all primed and pre shaded managed to find some very correct/close enough old decals from another old box which need to be applied with lots of tlc that's if they don't disintegrate on impact lol post more pics later (car boot to attend ) thanks for looking and any comments regards John

Advice required guys n girls I've been looking at my mirage and keep thinking does it need a Matt finish or should I leave it with the Klear finish thoughts very much appreciated thanks for any input John

Great work on such an old kit John

 

[noble]

Lovely work on the mirage, I think a matt coat is needed.

Super build John, love the paint finish. Another old kit given a new lease of life. Like Scott I think a matt coat would finish it nicely.

Wonderful work John, tend to agree with the matt coat, but still a superb paint-job.
