Hewy replied to Cookenbacher's topic in Marcel Bloch / Dassault GB
Wow, that is looking awsome, cracking job cookie -
A great sight I'll bet ,Wonderfull john, thanks π To be honest gerard the kits decals are awsome, so thin and conformable, also the large "ne pas marcher" and red outlines on the wing needed to be cut into three, it wasn't so much they were brittle, but so fine, they had a tendancy to fold up, the berna ones are nice , but the boars head (sanglier, thanks john) was really thick also the red bar, which is a seperate decal ,the front fuselage numbers were great though ,cheers fellas

Yours should work better than mine did I reckon because there's no dark stand out areas, it's more a gradual shading where you won't need to overdo the paint to cover , I'm looking forward to seeing it evolve , fingers are tightly crossed on your behalf gerard -
Just about got the decals all on with out drama, which is quite pleasing for a change, I'll start the final assembly later hopefully , Cheers all

Its looking superb with the decals π

That looks spot on to me, that should work really well gerard, follow the advise you gave to me (which i found difficult to follow ) and keep the paint thin and you're on to a winner -

Very well done seat gerard, and a cracking example of a worn rear end tooπ -
Thanks rom, yes i agree the kit atlis looks wrong ,the kittyhawk one from the etendard ivp looks much better, i dont really want to spoil my rafale kit by removing its pdlct pod, even though the kits decals are printed by cartograph and designed by cross delta and look very crisp, i shall be ordering a set from hannants by berna, i quite like the boars head, as for the camo ,yes I've noticed that and am actually in the process of adjusting the pattern From the etendard ivp kit but it does say jaguar on the sprues π

I agree gentlemen, i was hoping @rom1 or @eclipse might offer some of they're mirage knowlege before i committed,but at the minute im going with the kittyhawk version, i have seen pictures of the 2000D with the pdlct pod on but I'll leave that with the rafale kit , just working on the stand atm because there will be some little doo dads applied soon and i want to reduce the handling of the model, Just got to paint the top of the stand and do the image transfer. So tempted to put it on but the epoxy has to set yet Cheers Glynn
