HOW TO BUILD - MIRAGE IAI DAGGER - 1/48 Scale Aircraft Model - KINETIC

Detailed modeling of Kinetic 1/48 scale plastic model kit Mirage IAI DAGGER, a key aircraft in the Argentine Air Force during Falkland War / Fuerza Aerea Argentina en Malvinas. This model, which is one of the old productions of the Kinetic Model Kit, is not easy to assemble. I made many scratch build additions to the cockpit and especially to the glareshield. I enriched the image a little more with the Hasegawa pilot addition. I finished it straight out of the box, with my own means, without paying for detail sets and resin sets. I used Hataka, Vallejo and Mission Models acrylic paint for painting.
I hope you like.

your aptitude and delicacy when handling plastic is impressive, if you weren't a pilot, you would definitely be a heart surgeon

Bu uçağı görünce aklıma 80 li yillarin sonunda yaptığım Pioneer 2 den Arjantin kamuflajlı 1:72 Mirage III EA geldi. Ellerinize sağlık Uğur bey!

[@ugurkenel]

Demekki aynı zamanlarda aynı modeli yapmışız. İlk modellerimden biriydi. Okul harçlıklarımı biriktirerek almıştım. Istanbul Zeytinburnu’nda bir kırtasiyeden. Kutusunu halâ saklarım.
Çok teşekkürler. 🤝

[@Poopster4U]

Great job! This kit looked intimidating since it is an older kit and I could see there was a struggle and I know you're a good modeler. Gonna wait on this kit.

[@ugurkenel]

Thanksa lot!
This model is a bit problematic, there are compatibility problems in almost every part. But they are not unsolvable problems.

Düzenli içerik üretemediğimin farkındayım. Onu da ilave et, şunu da düzelt derken 2 ay sürüyor bir maketin bitmesi. Daha kaliteli firmalar ile çalışmalıyım galiba :)

Congratulations on assembling this difficult 1/48 Kinetic kit...even following the instruction manual it is difficult to assemble.

[@ugurkenel]

Thank you very much.
Yes, there are some problems, but they are not something that cannot be solved if you have time 😉

[@davidmartyn5044]

Your display room must be getting full by now. Sent me researching from a very detailed book from the time, Falklands the Air War, by an aviation group I belonged to. Seems C-415 did not feature in the order of battle, or at least there is no mention of it.
Very much like you modify parts to your taste, an not whine the kit should provide every part.

[@ugurkenel]

Luckily there is still a lot of place in my room for new models.
I made this model with the help and advice of many Argentinian experts, and I can say with certainty that many sources and even pictures show that this aircraft was actively used in Falkland war.

[@davidmartyn5044]

@@ugurkenel I had to get rid of the volumes of magazine that probably contained updates for the book. Did 415survive to war?

[@ugurkenel]

Yes, and she spent the rest of her life as painted gray.

[@Voryah93.MW1]

Great as always !
May i ask which kind of needle you using for scribing panel lines ?

[@ugurkenel]

Many thanks !
It's a normal sewing needle, it doesn't have any special features. I just attached it to a knife handle.
