Michel Huijghe
Stunning! 🙂

Luc B
👍 x 100

Dirk Heyer Författare
Thx Mates!
Additional pictures are added! I`ve painted the frontwheel and the frontwheelbay. RBF Tag is from Reheat Models!

Oliver Peissl
Dirk!
as always you find the right way to make a project very interesting for me!
Congrats for your nice ideas!

Oliver Peissl
one question about the Kit, why HobbyBoss, is this better than the Eduard MirageIII??

Guus
Magnificent Dirk !

Dirk Heyer Författare
@ Oliver:
No, this kit is not really better as the Eduard one! It is in fact almost identical! 🙂
Eduard has more special features included, like a pilot figure and photo-etched parts for examble!
However the Hobbyboss is much cheaper. I bought this box for 15 Euro!!!

Oliver Peissl
thanks for this info!
will you bring these begun parts with to heiden?

Dirk Heyer Författare
Maybe! 🙂

Mike Kryza
Hallo Dirk - ich lehne mich mal wieder in meinen Sessel zurück!!! 👍

Dirk Heyer Författare
Hi mates,
here are the next picies! 🙂

Dirk Heyer Författare
The CSF Cyrano Interceptor Radar is ready scratch built and my South African Mirage Pilot Guus Venter!
🙂
Please start viewing with picture 15..........

Holger Kranich
... Mir fehlen irgendwie die Worte, was das Radar angeht... Vielleicht:"Du must ja vollkommen irre sein...!"?
Oder vielleicht: Wahnsinn!?
In jedem Falle aber: Supergeil gemacht, ich bin neidisch!!!😢

Frank Krause
Small finger Dirk in action. Got you! You forgot to engrave the company logo on the pilot's suit zipper...😉
Holger's right - you're insane...and genius!😉

Maarten Kruizenga
fantastic, can't wait to see the rest!!!!!

Philip De Keyser
Wow Dirk, youve make a masterpiece of the radar, looking forward what is comming next, fantastic job mate.
Greetz Phil

stefan natus

@Harald:
I`m very dismayed, you know more of my psychological state than I thought!!😉

Holger Kranich
Harald?

Burkhard D
Awesome scratchwork 👍👍👍

Mike Kryza
Again a top work - 👍

Dirk Heyer Författare
@Holger:
😄 😄
Und schon wieder habe ich Dich zum Harald gemacht! Sry, der Name ist irgendwie ein Selbstläufer, da ein Freund so heißt!
Ich gelobe besserung und beim nächsten mal heißt es dann: Holgald, ich schaff das!!! Versprochen

Hubert Ortinger
Sehr motivierend!

Holger Kranich
Is schon ok, Dietmar! Wir werden doch alle älter oder Detlef?😢 Solange ich keine Mädchennamen von Dir bekomme bin ich doch happy!8)

Duncan Cook

Holger Kranich
Ja... Man nennt mich auch die Lady Gaga von Wangerooge...😢

Holger Kranich
👍 Nur mir mehr Kleber...😢

Christian Lehmann
Amazing Dirk . You have to tell me the secret about your sources that provide you the knowledge of all the details. 😉

Michel Huijghe
Stunning work. I love it.

Dirk Heyer Författare
@Duncan;
a picture of Jim Carrey as Lady G. would have been enough!!! 😉
The music, ääh sry this noise is more than harrowing...... :/
@all:
thx for your nice comments!
@Christian:
there is no secret 🙂
Only a bunch of great pictures of friendly modellers in France!
Some amazing detail pictures are found on Swiss web pages.
I search for example with keywords like "CSF Cyrano II" to find the necessary detail pictures for my Mirage Radar!
Some nice books like this:
amazon.de/Mirage-III..-World/dp/B0042TRPCG
livres.histoireetcol..rsions-c-b-r-b2.html
livres.histoireetcol..ions-e-rd-be-5f.html

that`s all 🙂

Es-haq Khosravi
Seeing the works like this and Marek Swiderskis's Su-25 makes me to blieve that scratch building is getting to a new generation! Super Works!!

Pierre-Christian Baudru
Outstanding job so far !

Jan Goormans

@ Wim: Outsch, didn`t hurt it??? 🙂 🙂

Michel Huijghe
@Dirk
Again an awesome job.

Maarten Kruizenga
awesome in the extreme

stefan natus
Thumbs up

Luc B
awesome ejection seat! 👍

Dirk Heyer Författare
Thx mates!
@ Luc:
At first I was searching for a resin replacement! As the cockpit is extremly narrow I didn`t want spending money, so I start to add some details out of plastic and lead foil and Magic Sculp!
Do you know a brand of photo-etched buckles, especially for Jet aircraft`s?

Luc B
I think Reheat has some.

Dirk Heyer Författare
Reheat is available yet???

Luc B
@Dirk: sorry I checked my stash, I had generic instrument panels from them not the buckles. But you could use following set? (depends on your vision of requiring fully accurate buckles) Buckles - Soviet Modern Air Force (Part S48-015, 1:48)

Dirk Heyer Författare
Aaaaah Luc,
you are the best!!! 🙂
Many many thx! Products from Part are always available!

Augie
Loverly Dirk... superb

Dirk Heyer Författare
Thx Augie 🙂

Luc B
@Dirk: 🙂 👍

Dirk Heyer Författare
Have done some minor add ons.
The basic cockpit parts are not bad of course, but I liked to achieve a more busy and technical appearance.

Holger Kranich
Dirk, its looking great but one question, if you allow: The RBF tags on the bangseat; will you paint the white lettering or will you do it with little decals?

Gerald
Nice

Dirk Heyer Författare
@ Holger

This RBF tags in usage of the Mirage III and their ejection seat, did not have any lettering.
Don`t assume this fact for all other tags on french aircraft`s !
Have in mind, the british Airforce was using in 1960 to 1970 only red/white striped tags without any lettering.
Maybe this practice is later on passed into official use?!
I can`t say why, but the french and south african airforce in 19 60 to 1970 seems to make an exception here?!
I could find only tags in red and no lettering.

Back to your question " How would I tackle that", if I would do so, I would using my Reheat Decals for this manner!

And of course, your questions my friend are always welcome!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Michel Huijghe
@Dirk
I bow to you my friend. 👍

Philip De Keyser
That looks pretty busy Dirk, I like it very much, this is another top build my friend 👍

Thx mates!
I`m pleased you like it!

Dirk Heyer Författare
Ok, next steps are done.
The Avionics bays are painted and the entire fuselage and wings are upgraded with tiny little rivets made with my tool "Rosie the Riveter"
Enjoy and have fun.

Flemming Forsberg
very very impresive

Mike Kryza
@Dirk - Ich kann mich Acki nur 100%ig anschliessen!!!

Michel Huijghe
So you enjoyed rose the riveter. 🙂 I've done this also with my Mig-19.😉
For the rest 👍.

Normally I`m using Dymo tape as a guide.
In thiscase I`ve used a strong and thick but flexible tape!
If I don`t have any blueprints, I try to verify close up pictures of the real thing!

stefan natus
The sound of silence said it all,top craftmanship.

Harry Eder
TOP 👍

Oliver Peissl
Mir fehlen die Worte Dirk!!
Einfach fantastisch, immer wieder eine Freude Dir beim Basteln über die Schulter zu schauen.....

Dirk Scheffler
Absolutly the Top of Model Building. Not more to say.

Absolutely amazing work. Can't get enough of this. 👍

Tim Vereecke

Christian Meyerhoff
Simply fantastic!

Stefan Fraundorfer
Servus Dirk! Hast Du Dir schon mal überlegt für ein Modellbaumagazin, wie z.B. ModellFan, zu arbeiten? Die würden Dich dort mit offenen Armen empfangen. Im Ernst, ich würde dort an Deiner Stelle mal anklopfen.

Und ganz nebenbei: Das wird wieder ein unglaublich tolles Modell von Dir.

Dirk Heyer Författare
Many many thx, mates!
@ Bill
Now it is proven! I`m human!! Yippieh.......
Did an imbecile failure! The castle roundel on the right wing (picture 74) is wrong! The springbok on wings is each facing the fuselage. I could repair this, but now I`m looking for a new castle roundel for the upper side. A friend will help next WE! OMG, an error on the last step!
@ Stefan
Darüber nachgedacht habe ich! Bin immer noch am überlegen ob ich nicht doch lieber " Art of Modelling" fragen soll!
Das Magazin sagt mir von seiner Aufmachung mehr zu! Glaube aber die suchen eher Stahlblech Autoren?

Holger Kranich
Naja Dirk, Deine Vampire war ja schonmal in der ModellFan...

Dirk Heyer Författare
????????
Aber ich habe doch nie einen Bericht für MF geschrieben???
Die hätten doch mal was sagen können!!! 🙁
Wann und wo war denn das???????????

shahram hassanpour
nice job

Holger Kranich
@Dirk, das war in einer von den letzten Heften, glaube ich. Da war Deine Vampire das Foto des Monats, recht weit vorne im Heft. Es war ein doppelseitiger hochglanz Augenschmaus! Ich schau heute Abend mal in meine Sammlung und kann Dir genau sagen in welcher das war!

Oliver Peissl
es war ein Bild von einer Ausstellung, ich meine aus Heiden...?

Holger Kranich
Ja, ich glaube auch das es in Heiden aufgenommen wurde!

Dirk Heyer Författare
Schön das man sowas im Nachhinein erfährt. Soso Doppelseite.
Na dann!

Holger Kranich
Es ist in der Modellfan vom November 2012. Auf Seite 6 und sieben ist ein wunderschönes Foto von deiner Vampir unter der Überschrift "Blutsauger aus Holz und Metall"
Ich mach ein Foto und lade dir das morgen hoch!

Dirk Heyer Författare
Vielen Dank Holger!
🙂

Roderick Agius
nice work mate 🙂

Dirk Heyer Författare
Big Dilemma!!
A glass shelf with other models fell on my nearly finished Mirage III CZ!
I`m pretty upset!
The complete undercarriage, all aerials, pitots and the hole aux tanks as the center Rocket Matra are demolished!
At two to three points of the aluminum finish is destroyed...
I`m drinking a beer that moment and wanna start to rescue my model!
OMG! What happens?????????

Christian Lehmann
Sch...e! Was ist den anderen Modellen passiert?

Dirk Heyer Författare
@ Christian:
Minor undercarriage damage to my Airacobra, Fennek and MB Truc are save!
🙂

Dirk Heyer Författare
It was a pretty little disaster here! 🙂

Christian Lehmann
Dann ist das ja trotzdem noch glimpflich ausgegangen. Hoffentlich bekommst du das Alufinish wider hin.

Wim van der Luijt
Crap on a cracker! How did it happen?

Roderick Agius
Oh sh... Im very sorry two years ago happend me the same thing and destroyed 2 harriers and a canberra .....im very sorry hope you sort everything

Urban Gardini
That's horrible mate! I feel your pain...

Philip De Keyser
Sh.. Dirk, this is a little tragedy! I hope you can rescue these beautifull works 🙁

Dirk Heyer Författare
I hope too!

Oliver Peissl
mein herzliches Beileid, für dieses dilemma!

Christian Meyerhoff
Das ist sehr bedauerlich. Hoffentlich bekommst du das wieder hin.

Jan Goormans
Dirk, if anyone that can rescue this it's you
go for it and amaze us again

Holger Kranich
Ach Du Scheiße!

Mohammad Adl
Very very nice😉

Dirk Heyer Författare
About 50 % of the damage is repaired!
🙂

Roderick Agius
good keep it up mate 🙂

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Ohhhhh,not good.
Thats a hell of a nightmare.But as Jan said,if anyone can fix it then you!
Ich drück Dir die Daumen das du es hinbekommst.

stefan natus
Soo sorry to read this,hope you can fix it 100%.

Mike Kryza
Dirk - ich kenne so etwas auch und kann Dir das nachfühlen. Nur sind meine Modelle in den blauen Sack gewandert - ich hatte und habe nicht den Nerv etwas zu restaurieren. Deshalb - meinen Respekt!

Dirk Heyer Författare
Friends!
Finshed........
I could rescue my french baby!!
Done repair to 100%

Jean-Paul DEWAR
Hello Dirk. Very nice work on your Mirage .

Filip Jereczek
My jaw dropped and hit the floor

Dirk Heyer Författare
Thx my friends!

Dirk Heyer Författare
Ok mates,

Dirk Heyer Författare
Thx mates,
for your kindly comments!
I`ve added six additional pictures!

Stefan Fraundorfer
Einfach nur geil.

Wim van der Luijt
Fantastic rescue! If I'm ever able to a achieve a finish half as good I'd be a happy man...

Michel Huijghe
@Dirk
No, no, no. I won't admit this one at our KMK contest. It's ridiculous to enter that model. You leave the rest of the competitors no change of winning gold. 🙂
Let's come to the bar and you'll receive a drink from me. STUNNING. 👍

Dirk Heyer Författare
Hi mates!
The Mirage is not signed in for contest this year in Mol! :/
If it is possible I will take this model with me to show you. Maybe I will find a place to exhibit it , but not in contest. This Mirage is for another contest in Mol ! 🙂 🙂 🙂
This year I wanna sign in my Airacobra! 🙂

Dirk Scheffler
Perfect, so I see it in Mol.

Christian Lehmann
Amazing! Like always 🙂

Es-haq Khosravi

Xenia V.

Oliver Peissl

I´m speechless!

Harry Eder
Very good job ! 👍

Zimmermaniac
great

Holger Kranich
Jesus, just great!

Dirk Heyer Författare
Many thx mates for your kindly and very ambitious words.

So many of you liked my pictures I did in front of my hangar, and commend the realistic atmosphere., so I would like to say something about.
Well, at first it is an easy task to achieve a realistic perspective, as I`m going down and try to have a view like a quarter scale human. At this point my model looks something impressive and huge.
Some guys have recommended to make my pictures outside with a better quantity of light. During my early photographic experiments I did so. But as consequence of such bright light, a lot of details of the model were lost. Now I prefer to make all my pictures with daylight lamps in a large photo tent ( 120cm x120 x120 cm large).

@Christian Meyerhoff:
I explained the work on my hangar here:
Hangar in scale 48 as a photostudio | Album by Vlat

@Helmut Fraundorfer:
My next expos will be in Mol, Eindhoven, Main-Kinzig, and next year in Moveleo!!

Roland Sachsenhofer
Dirk, all the appropiate praising words written above could be repeated by me... it´s just breathtaking!

Vitor Costa
Well being the last almost (almost!!!!) everything has been said but... no problems i will say it again 😄 One or even the best Mirage in NMF i saw, thais is really amazing! Congratulations Dirk.
You are one of the best modellers i know and i'm a fan of your work, thank you for sharing it.

well i said almost... and forgive me if i'm going to mention it but... when i see the stunishing work you have done there but... you didn't put an weighed tires on it?? Its like almost die in the beach, this doesn't take ANY value to your work, that i early mentioned is something of amazing, but... well, i hope you don't take me wrong.

Im still a fan of your art 😉 😄 😄 😄

Nikolajs Negeriss
Great paintjob, Dirk! It's not easy to do realistic metallic paint-jobs. And great pictures!

Aghis Barberopoulos
Impressive Work!

Pascal GARAT
Awesome! From the beginning till the end: Awesome!!
