REVELL 1/72 MIRAGE 2000D FULL BUILD

[@fredtedstedman]

such a perfect shape . purity of line shared by all the Mirage family - in fact all Dassault jets !

[@Mr-Patate87]

The body fuel tank is incorrect. On the Mirage 2000, the 1300 litres fuel tank doesn't have any aerodynamic component.

[@georgebrown6540]

As always Alex, fantastic build and video, thanks for sharing.

[@modellbaueinhorn5717]

Wow amazing work. Very interesting how you used different paints and techniques. I just love the design of this jet it is so timeless, i mean it is from the 1980's and it looks kind of up to date. Very nice video. Happy easter!

[@AlexModeling]

+ModellbauEinhorn Happy Easter... i love it too... the french build updates for it in a very easy way you just take that computer off and replace it for the new... modules!

[@charliebowman785]

Delicious, simply delicious. A candy with wings. Superb job Alex.

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you

[@bertrandleroy6069]

Beau travail pour le plus beau des Mirage. Je vais monter le même.

[@hondansx1000]

[@maxbrandt6]

Very nice! I should really pick this kit up myself, love delta wing aircraft and much better looking then the F-35 bucket!

[@SirRathalos]

Neat work Alex, real nice kit!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks

[@HamilkarBarkasScaleModelling]

[@AlexModeling]

+Hamilkar Barkas I m doing this kit slowly for a month now... without my garagw is harder to work but... its modeling! Thanks Michael!

[@fubarmodelyard1392]

[@AlexModeling]

+FUBAR Model Yard happy easter brother

[@AlexModeling]

+Corrie Rynberk thank you Corrie!

[@allgood6760]

Nice!... sleek and chic 👍✈️🇳🇿

[@farmarkalky9840]

I have got this model and is very good

[@grahampack4354]

Beautiful work.

[@AlexModeling]

+Graham Pack thank you! Apreciate it!

[@ArmourEmpire]

Good to see you back at the bench Alex. Nice bold mate. Kutgw

[@AlexModeling]

+Armour Empire Hey Mark... thank you!

[@lic.gdealva8388]

[@AlexModeling]

+Lic. G De Alva Felices Pascoas amigo mio! Saludos!

[@neilmackay7475]

brilliant work Alex my friend it's a big thumbs up from me buddy

[@AlexModeling]

+Neil Mackay Thank you

[@UKscalemodeller]

ahhh, this brings back happy memories of building mine (I am guessing they are the same basic kit just with a different cockpit. stunning work Alex as ever and yours is better than mine in both model and video. great to see you are still on the horse.

[@AlexModeling]

+UKscalemodeller trying to be Ian (after all horses are my speciality) :) its the same kit and as itold you since i saw your i wanted to build one.. its your fault my friend! :)

[@UKscalemodeller]

Yes, I remember :)

[@jagdpanther2224]

Produced by Italeri, just a re-box of their stuffs sold by Revell！

[@hgbarnes1584]

Hey Alex, those side cutters are well loved and seen better days eh? LOL Nice work.

[@johnfisher1472]

Hi Alex, I think that you should do a revell 1/72 model b17 "Memphis belle" , I am thinking of buying one so it would be awesome to see a pro build one so I can take some tips. Thanks.

[@type2280303]

you did a great job Alex as usual ;-) really love how it turned out in a stunning model keep up you great work, always nice to watch your videos

[@AlexModeling]

+jean grieten thank you so much!

[@Zone5Aviation]

Good work as usual. Does the kit come with the chaff/flare dispensers that mount on the spine just forward of the tail fin? Most 2000Ds that carry the laser designator are normally fitted with them.

[@AlexModeling]

+tomcatter11 unfortunatly it doesn t bring it! No pretuberance at all... more a C than a D

[@karinlefevre9988]

Great build as usual! The delta wing jets have that something special about them. I think my all time favorite is the B-58 Hustler. For a delta wing funny this involves an F-106 delta wing. Look on youtube for, Cornfield bomber. the end has an unexpected twist.

[@AlexModeling]

+Karin Lefevre The Hustler is mu favorit cokd war plane.. such an amazing bird

[@karinlefevre9988]

Yeah had a crazy eject. system. I think the Valkyrie had one like it as well.

[@AlexModeling]

+Karin Lefevre yes it was the same

[@Kyocera-ot6hb]

Good Ol Mirage nice work ......

[@AlexModeling]

+Commando 1985 thanks!

[@Kyocera-ot6hb]

AlexModeling Your welcome

[@bpezzano1]

Another really great build! Quick question. Did you put any weight iin the nose? To keep from being a tail sitter. Keep up the fantastic work, my friend!

[@AlexModeling]

+bpezzano1 hi! Yes i did! The kit says that on the instructions... i filmed it but the batterie went off the moment i was putting it so...

[@misticrider4785]

Nice I like it well done

[@AlexModeling]

+Mark Wilson thank you

[@michaelkeaton5394]

My question is why does it seems theres a whole other cockpit but only for a single pilot and other weapons pylons???

[@DaCostaStudio]

Muito fixe mesmo Alex! Abraço :)

[@FreakazoidakaBen]

There he is again! Hello Alex, nice to see a new video of you! Again a 1/72 scale aircraft. Is the scale your new passion, after the giant SDBS Dountless😉? Greetings ben and beautiful easter

[@AlexModeling]

+Freakazoid aka Ben hello Ben... i have no space to display my builds now that i dont have my garage

[@FreakazoidakaBen]

This is a pity, because a model builder always needs space for his works.

[@nicolasgjenganger5436]

very nice build. Is this a re-boxed Italeri kit, or does my memory fool me?

[@AlexModeling]

+Nicolas Gjenganger I believe it is

[@josealejandroalvaradobotei8584]

que gran trabajo y que lapiz usas para marca como se puede usar el aerografo

[@timsscalemodelbuilding4888]

Where do you set the camera?

[@smokingspitfire1197]

Okay, sorry if this is the worlds most commonly asked irritating question but, what is your airbrush?

[@AlexModeling]

+SmokingSpitfire no problem.. its a Neo Iwata

[@smokingspitfire1197]

AlexModeling really? Excellent! I just bought that exact type myself

[@l000l1000]

AlexModeling de onde mandas vir os teus kits, tintas e etc?

[@AlexModeling]

+Luís Matias geralmente vou a loja BIGCAT.. tem boa variedade e preço... se foresnpesquizar encontras a loja online... se viveres na area de Maceda Aveiro.. é pertinho

[@l000l1000]

AlexModeling Obrigado!

[@sayansayan5574]

Ive bought this model. It came with some paint, some glue and a brush. I have no clue how to paint it. Is it gonna look crap at the end if i do not use the airbrush tool? Sorry for my ignorance.

[@AlexModeling]

+Sayan Sayan hello Sayan... let me say something first... its a very good kit with a good fit... you will enjoy it, second... the thing that matters in modeling is to have fun.. doesn t matter if you have to to use an airbrush or not... what matters is TO HAVE FUN... if you enjoy the hobbie and the build it will NEVER look crap because you ve enjoyed it... so... if you don t have an airbrush... have fun brush painting it! ;) ... on this kit first apply the base color and then the splinters or stripes ok... the darker color second.. and its not your ignorance... you have nothing to apologise... just be strong, decisive... look at the model... study it... make a "battle plan" how to tackle it:) in the end it will be alright.. and remember... its only a kit... and a hobby.. cheers! Good luck

[@sayansayan5574]

AlexModeling cheers from prompt and positive reply. im so impatient, probably thinking forwards too much. ill study it and try to so my best with it :) gonna share the results with you mate!

[@AlexModeling]

+Sayan Sayan thank you! And remeber.. FUN!:):)

[@ignaciochirinos6621]

Hey, really nice work! I have this kit but I lost the manual.. Do you know where can I download at least the pdf version? Keep up the good work!

[@AlexModeling]

Try the oficial Revell site! :)

[@ignaciochirinos6621]

I will! thanks for the prompt response

[@AlexModeling]

My pleasure! :)

[@itzmeoval1390]

hey Alex my canopy plastic is all cloudy please suggest something to make it clear.

[@AlexModeling]

+Itzmeoval "Micro Mesh".. its a real thin sponge sand surface that goes up to 12000 grit! Try it! :) or Tamyia compound... drom the thick to the thin... its 3 tubes... start on the coarse and finish on the thin one

[@itzmeoval1390]

+AlexModeling thank you :D

[@paulhoudier4429]

u forgot the tip of the nose cone!

[@zoe50ccs]

It's not a Mirage 2000D because the dorsal ridge is that of a Mirage 2000N.

[@vortexmodeling]

It has been a while : )

[@AlexModeling]

+Vortex yes :)

[@melandsuegbbo2089]

Congratulations on a really good job of building, sadly, a garbage kit. Revell (originally Italeri) should retire this putrid piece of plastic. It’s not like they don’t have some good kits in their range.

[@katapros3937]

Where I can buy vrey little paintbrushes like you have? because my cockpits and landing gears are very bads (my paintbrushes are too big)

[@AlexModeling]

+Katapros Pikamonstre hello! On every shop specialized in paintings and drawing an art shop you can buy some 00# or 000# brushes! :)

[@AlexModeling]

+Katapros Pikamonstre or use just a toothpick (yes i wrote toothpick) very pointy one and use it to paint the buttons... see some of my build videos and you will see how i use it!

[@katapros3937]

thanks it's a very interessent technique

[@katapros3937]

I will try

[@AlexModeling]

+Katapros Pikamonstre no problem... wat h some videos here... you can find guys much better than me modeling and doing great work

[@peterkkpoon1826]

Hi, I am from Hong Kong. I like to watch your videos very much, but I cannot understand what you said, its a great petty. Could you please, please add English caption in your future videos. Of course if that doesnot cause you too much trouble. Thanks.

[@25hanusia]

hmmmm...not bad.

[@katapros3937]

Yeah a french plane!

[@AlexModeling]

+Katapros Pikamonstre thanks :)

[@katapros3937]

I love the Mirage 2000 but my favourite is the Rafale M

[@rossmunro7084]

Love the build but, by the gods, I hate the music. It really grates. Get rid of it please

[@andreduque162]

nao é f 2000 mas sim so mirage 2000 D abraço

[@AlexModeling]

+andre duque abraço; )

[@AlexModeling]

+andre duque onde fui buscar o F nem sei... grande abraço

[@cesarignjas]

parabéns! ótimo vídeo! tenho um igual pra fazer, queria perguntar: ele precisa de peso no cone para parar de pé? só uma coisa que eu observei que você poderia melhorar, esses avioes tem uma ponta bem aguda no cone, você poderia reproduzir ela, eu acho que deixa o modelo muito melhor, eu fiz isso no meu Rafale da hobby boss, (e refiz depois que minha filha derrubou ele no chao) daria pra adicionar agora sem problema e só repintar o cone, foi o que eu fiz no meu, se tiver interesse da uma olhada nas fotos: www.scalemates.com/profiles/mate.php?id=16302&p=albums&album=27288&view=thumbs
