Tripio Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 They look very convincing. Nice job with those kits. Regards,Laz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisTheBear Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 That is very nicely done! I'm a sucker for early jets, and you've done a good job on this (and the rest of the collection)! DennisTheBear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vultures1 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Very nice Ouragan in a smart collection of Dassault jets - well done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darby Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 You have to give Heller their due; they did push out some interesting kits. Still like to have a pop at some of their French ones now and again. Nice work on that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdriaN (MLT) Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 thank you all It looks great from a distance, but full of flaws in close up Next up (after some 1:48 builds) is a 1:72 Fouga Magister. Not Dassault, but still French! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 A terrific looking Ouragan and a great collection. I really like the paint scheme which is expertly applied. Is it Patrouille de France? It's good to see that Heller are back in the game. Hopefully they'll produce some new tools one day. I really like French jets from the 50s and 60s so that line up looks splendid to my eyes. Looking forward to seeing the Magister join them. I reckon you're going to need a Mirage III to complete the line up. Did you re-scribe the Ouragan? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Very nice build and the colourful livery really makes it stand out. For my taste, the panel joints are much too stark, even competing visually with the gaps of the moving surfaces. That black wash is much too contrasty, to my eyes. Kind regards, Joachim 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards, Joachim You are absolutely right! they are too thick and dark. I used the Trumpeter scriber and i find its too wide for a 1:72 model. My wash might have been too concentrated & in contrast with a polished finish. I have a tendancy to press too hard when scribing and pass over the same line too much. ive learnt my lesson. next time light passes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
