This model was built straight out of the box and I chose to represent the aircraft from the No. 7 Sqn. (The BattleAxes) of the Indian Air Force. Having decided the color schemes of the other two Mirage kits that I have in my stash, I chose to go with the rare light brown and dark green camo scheme. The only photo reference was a picture featured in http://www.Bharat-Rakshak.com/ . I tried my best to represent the weapon load configuration as in the picture, but I failed miserably with my attempts to lathe turn the Laser guided bomb:-((

The fit up was better than I expected. Acrylics were airbrushed with the usual finishing coats to seal the self made decals.

Happy Independence Day....Jai Hind!
