three-part nozzle with a PE in the middle, so Cyano, except that it's too thin to stick well and it breaks constantly, now the body of the fuselage is attacked by the cyano so trash

Dom SAVE, I'm sorry to read this, but if you can, please try to hang in there. You've come too far to throw it away. I agree with what you're saying about how the manufacturer made this piece. I fully support you.

Oh man, that's really unpleasant.
I have the kit at home, but as I'm rearranging my stash, I'm willing to part with it and send it your way. You could continue with the build then.
Send me a PM in case. 😉

@Cuajete @Guido, thanks a lot for the words, I took the kit in the trash, I'll look, I think there are 1/72 Mirage IV nozzles in resin, which could perhaps do the trick. For the fuselage I can also sculpt putty.

Wise decision, let it rest for a while and once you have everything you need, you give it another go.
In any case, we're not going anywhere 😉

I agree with Guido 👍
Dom SAVE, please let us know if those exhausts for the Mirage IV fit this one. Thanks!

hang on, you can make it look good despite the efforts of the manufacturer in the opposite direction

@cuajete, @spanjaard, @Guido, Thank you for the motivation, I will take the time to look at how best to integrate the nozzles but it is good to know that a reference to 1/72 allows you to correct an accident
Jean : Merci beaucoup

I am glad that you proceed and that we might be lucky to see a moving-wing Mirage!

Mixing Alclads is one of the sweet things you can do with them. Always gives this interesting variations, like on the wings 👍🏻

Great progress!
I'm glad to see the resin exhausts working and that this project is moving forward 👍

As this is coming to an end, I want to thank you for your support, especially during the nozzle period. Thank you.

Félicitations, super résultat pour un magnifique avion ! Ça me donne envie d'en faire un !

I have the kit as well, so thank you for having shared all the different steps here. Nice picture set of the well finished model too!
👏🏻👏🏻

I am so glad that this model has been finished and not became a F.R.I.B. (Flies Right Into Bin). Well done! Looks great!
