GELI No. 5 / Dassault Mirage III / 1:33
Because "Boats" did such a great job with another Geli model, I would like to come up again with one of the new released models.
The Dassault "Mirage" III, French counterpart to the "Starfighter" and often sold to many parts of the world. Especially for this jetfighter, the silver shine cardboard of Geli is a fantastic base. First of all, letīs have a look on what Iīm going to cut and glue... |

Hi Boats,
thank you very much for beeing my guest on this journey. Letīs enjoy the Geli spirit... The same procedure with nearly every Geli model - building the central fuselage segment. This one is not as simple as it seems to be. You have to prepare it well due to the hunchback form. |

Afterwards, I built the aft section of the fuselage. No problems to report here. Just working smooth and with patience...

Hi Boats, I hope so and wait for it.
Meanwhile, I built the front fuselage section and put all parts together. |

Very smooth fuselage. The only Geli that I ever built was the x-15 when I was new to card modeling. It had a few dimples in it due to my inexperience, although I'm not so sure that my skills have improved much! I also had a Sukhoi, I think it was the Fishpot, that I gave away to a friend.

I always liked the Mirage 3. However, GELI was never my favorite kit maker ( neither is FG ).
I would be watching the final pictures of this build. Regards Isaac |

Thanks for interest guys.
Important for the side rudder setting up, is the alignment with the center line of the fuselage. Best point of view to check, is the front view. |

Nothing significant to report while building the cockpit section.
