  1. it's a challenge ,I said , I built 3 of these old kits ,At each time I have encountered problems with the gluing of the wings to the fuselage.. attention to the dihedral
  2. Hi WOW !!! a long sanding session awaits you ... did you receive the 1300L tank ?? Alain
  3. hi excellent natural metal finish, not a shiny aluminum, but quite dull according to an "operational aircraft " finish..... well done Alain
  4. Hi For my part, I would do the "surgery" on the bottom,......... to be honest, I would catch up the fuselage/ nose profile with putty, it seems that there is barely 1mm (more or less) between the fuselage and the nose.. I use for this kind of work, putty for body car repair (finishing putty) easy to sand down, can be engraved, it's a bi -component, putty + hardener ... it could be worth considering Alain
  5. the Viggen is a resin model , an heavy stuff ( almost 2 kg ) . I wonder if the F 84 will be a 3 D printed model , I presume lighter than the Viggen ... doesn't it ? The Ouragan of course , I mainly waiting for the SO 9000 Trident Alain
  6. I made my pre-order yesterday .Regarding the weight of the kit , I hope that the nose gear leg, will be strong enough to support it..well .... let's trust to the Jetmad team to solve the problem Alain
  7. Hi it's a very nice little " vignette" , very realistic , the battle damages are well done , you got it !!! .. the guy on the tail plane looks a bit "relax" compare to the dramatic moment depicted ,I presume it's the typical " the Brit sense of coolness "(or composure) Alain
  8. Hi Mate , You’re a challenge-loving guy, I remember your Revell's Mig 29 ( for example ) this one will be a hard way for sure ... hang on , have fun Alain
  9. Hi great job on the wheel wells , I 've to admit that I was waiting for you in these particular areas .....if you're not a fetishist, what would it be if you were? Maybe not fetishist, but perfectionist, if you didn't make such detailing , somethings would have been missing ....hat off Alain
  10. hi it's a living diorama , we are as a witness of this moment ... well done Alain
  11. Hi Your parcel is on the way Alain
  12. Hi Karl , aka " black Betty " has reworked the original O Pinsolle's conversion to the - 5 version a while ago , I seem to remember that radar pod on the right wing came from Harold 's Alain
  13. Come on guys let's keep cool Chirch, keep on showing us your in-progress painting job, we are all interested.
  14. Hi Nick you are right : quick , and easy kit ..... even if one could add THE own touch Alain
  15. oh , I missed this one , maybe because it was a quick build ... well this one seems to have been a cool trip ... hasn't it been ? well done mate !!!!!! Alain

  18. Nice paint job Nick !! , it's unusual to see this cammo .....well done ...more pictures are welcome Alain
  19. hi the b version can easily done from the D .....There are small differences between the D ant the N , especially the aft IP ( not the same missions) ....must be checked though
  20. Hi gents I don't know if we have already talked in this , I just came across on that ...... Alain
  21. Hi Nick it’s worth what it’s worth, I clean the kit with alcohol before painting, at least to degrease it, and remove fingerprints etc....the cammo turns nicely Alain
  22. Hi first thank you for your comment .... now , about the mottle effect on the tail surface . Once the color base is painted , you can use these weathering effect stencil tools , there are various designs , you spray a light layer of dark alu , then a black wash .... easy !!!! ..... Alain for example
