So tell us a little more about this creation.

To be short (I work on backstory and caracteritics)

It's a Mirage G1 (G for Géométrie Variable). It's a pure interceptor, basically a Mirage F1 fuselage with variable geometry wings (for this model reshaped MiG-23 wings). Using Atar 9K50.

Nice work Slerski. Your Mirage G1 looks more svelte and ready-for-business than the Real World Mirage G!

 Passes for a real life flier.  I think the swing wings make it aircraft carrier compatible.

Looks great, Slerski! I like the contrast between that nice upper color and the silver of the drop tanks and pylons. I don't know if the underside is silver, but I think that's be a great way to go. I'm very impressed with the sharp demarcation of the nose and the anti-glare panel.

Your teaser is neat too. I like the cranked wintips.

The underside is in fact, silver (more exactly in mat aluminium) :)

These were colors used by Mirage F1 from CAFDA (Commandement Air des Forces de Défense Aérienne - Air Defense Forces Command ) from '70 to early 2000.

I love your Mirage G.1; may I have permission to borrow the idea for one of my own, perhaps even a "little fellar" in 1/144?  I do have a question, the current WIP, is it the Fujimi F-35B kit or is it one of the kits based on the X-35B?  I'm thinking of using the "guts" of a X-35B or F-35B and a larger-scale X-36 to do what should have come from St. Louis if they hadn't chosen a faulty mode for powering their lift-fan.

You have the permission :) I stole this idea to Dassault Aviation

For the current WIP, it's the Italeri X-35B.
