    Jean-Luc this an awesome paint scheme. Very challenging.

     

    I have the Revell kit and plan on doing this exact bird. I will have to scratch build the wing tanks. Having trouble finding the oop Two Bob's Japanese aggressor decals.

     

    I will be watching your build and taking notes.

    Hi Dan , thank you , yes, now , this sheet is hard to find....actually , a French seller sell on Ebay a sheet...but the price is too expansive for me...

    I use a F-15C Tamiya and the parts from a F-15 E for this project.

     

    The main fuselage and the wing are assembled.

    The Exhaust type "spaghetti" provided with the kit is not the right version for this plane...i need to scratchbuild the correct Exhaust...for after , when the engine is in place :)

    Hi Everybody ,

     

       I try to do my best this New Year , i need to finish a RF-4EJ , a F-15DJ , a F/A-18F and maybe a Su-34....gluuupssss

     

       I finish the first of this series...a Extra 330Sc from the EVAA (French Acrobatic Team from the French air force) , i love this little plane , at the beginning , i would scratch build the plane , and Icareodesign come with a resin kit from this plane ! Great for me !!!

     

      A Extra 330 SC , is that :

    3692914987_e104942668%20Extra%20330%20SC

     

     And the Icareodesign kit , is that :

     

    DSCN0097.jpg

     

    For a Walkaround of this kit , follow this link to the website of Icaerodesign : http://lcaerodesign.com/ocart/index.php?route=product/product&path=60&product_id=54

     

    I begin with the front panel , the kit is the same for all the version from Icaerodesign , and some parts are not right for the French version , i add new instrument above and especially , i enlarge the panel downward..

     

    DSCN0055.jpg

     

    The front panel done...

     

    DSCN0098.jpg

     

    A tubular frame is supplied made with a 3d printer , but but...the quality is poor... see yourself the pictures...

     

    DSCN0065.jpg

     

    DSCN0064.jpg

     

    And other problem , this tubular frame is too big...i cannot close the fuselage without damage...
