And I feel already bad because I have two F-4, F-16 and Eurofighter in the same scale... Alex

Nah, both used, and the small tanks were already donated! Could well be, as the range constraint is maybe smaller than flying from Corsica to Libya. Alex

Just did some reseach when I built the Rafale B myself (Libya ops, however). I think they didn't carry the pod on the twin. One reason could be that the two seater has less internal fuel than the single seater, so they didn't want to add even more additional drag. So, if flying in pairs, one had the additional crew member, and the other the illuminating pod. Alex Here is a thread where some items were discussed, hope that helps!

Nice kit, looks really mean with the load! As you wrote, it's correct, Rafale M use only one scalp on the centerline, to avoid load imbalance in case one doesn't launch. But it looks better this way! Alex

Those wishing to see the pictures again, they are now on scalemates: https://www.scalemates.com/profiles/mate.php?id=11437&p=albums&album=40254 Sorry, I deleted the folder after the photobucket-"upgrade"-opportunity Alex

Nice one. Did I see right that you removed the wing root antennas and rebuilt the stall lips? (I'm building the KA-6D right now, which should be the same kit plus the tanker parts) Alex

Well, from what I heard and read, the heller may be more accurate. Italeri/Revell is more based on the prototype, and has some issues with the dimensions. As there is no really good option on the market, I wait until someone develops a new & nice M2000. Alex

For sure, he showed us how to push the limits a bit further... Alex

One of the first lessons in marketing. Don't charge for the effort you had, charge what the customer is willing to pay! BTT, I must have missed that the sea king is a new tool, looks intersting as well because of the foldable rotor. Takes little shelf space, which is nice! Alex

Whatever it will be - 90% will be disappointed! Alex

Very nice! Agree on the railing, they look far too big for this scale. Subtle weathering too, I like it. Alex

Any ideas about the F-117 and the OV-10A in 1/72? Old repops, I suppose? Alex

Interesting, I did know we had Centurion turret bunkers, I never saw one being built. And I like Image nr. 40 in your link, it's the most represetative one in the gallery! Alex

Hentai? Wait, that's not a model brand, isn't it?! looks great, like a tomcat on steroids! Alex

Just continued a bit on the Scorpion. Can it be that Revell has got the tiptanks upside down on their drawing? I think that the large square panels should be on top, and not on the bottom side. Anyone here who can confirm or deny it? Alex
