exdraken Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 MQ-9 Reaper French Airforce 1/33 "Belfort" operation Barkhane 1/48 Kinetic kit reboxed by Revell decals: he excellent ones from Caracal Models WiP: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234992379-mq-9-reaper-french-airforce-133-belfort-operation-barkhane-148/ finally finished! was definitely more than a weekend project as initially planned! first, I identified the need to know a bit more about the Reaper, then I noticed that France operates a more modern version than the kit represented, then I needed to modify,....etc. you know this, don't you? but here you are all the necessary mods: , no photoshop, he! just natural sunlight reflection! thanks for comments!

Natter Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Not enough RPAS (google it) on this forum. Fabulous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darby Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Bigger than I thought. That sunlight reflection is one of those moments you know will never happen again. What weapons do they normally carry or are they strictly recon? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 thanks everybody for your kind comments! and to CaracalModels himself for commenting! without those decals I would probably not have bought the kit in the beginning! thanks for producing them in such quality! :) and yes, it is big! (able to carry 2 GBU-12s and 4 Hellfires after all for several hours!) French Reapers are strictly recon for the time being, probably starting soon to carry weapons though....
