vivkulan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 My first build for 2016. Got inspired by the weathered birds from Operation Serval in Mali . 1/48 Hobby Boss Rafale B. Built the kit OOB. Used Tamiya acrylics for painting and oils for weathering. The cockpit canopy fit was surprisingly bad for a Hobby Boss kit. But other than that it was a straight forward build. Now lets look at the pictures. And finally pictures of Stable Mates Let me know how you like it Regards Vivek 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Like it, painting looks nice. A bit surprised about the position of the fuselage roundel - is this position from the HB instruction? BTW, The Rafale B is my next project, but 1/72! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right , it is supposed to be behind the canards isn't it . Hobbyboss instruction is wrong then. I can't do anything now I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
