Dassault Ouragan 1/48th JGMT resin


Recommended Posts

Hi all - as some light relaxation while I build 2 more Meatboxes, I had a sudden attack of Suezcitis ( it's that 50s jet mood again, and it is the anniversary this year too), so dusted off this little gem from JGMT.

It was kindly supplied a year for two ago by my good friend Rowan Broadbent, along with the excellent Isradecals sheet. I had rather annoyed him by threatening to build it "en robe Francaise", but in the end the promise of a whacking great big shark mouth and narrow suez stripes with red lightning flashes on the tips tanks, all over a natural metal surface won out, so it will now be "a la mode Israelienne".

Weighing in at just less than the mass of a collapsing star, it's not a lightweight model, but fortunately the rather sturdy white metal landing gear seems up to the job.

At the moment I'm just cleaning up a few areas, etc etc, but I've made a start on the cockpit - adding a new coaming as the model lacks one.

Stay tuned for more heavy-weight Kadesh-based 'Urricanicity

Nose intake splitter needs a quite bit of work to add detail and refine.....in prog here.

O' lala. :analintruder:

I'll be watching this very carefully.

An Ouragan in 1/48 is relly high on my wishlist.

It's one of the few types that's missing in my IDF/AF collection.

nice start, looks like a decent kit!

quite big, no?

actually I am trying to get hold of one of these for some time now.... but no chance :(

HI - yes it is surprisingly big! And its pretty good actually - the surface finish of the resin is very smooth, though I suspect the canopy is a tad oversized.

If it was not for my friend Rowan then I would have not got this one.

cheers

Afternoon !!! so I've done a bit of detailing in the cockpit. I shall call it a homage, or perhaps "Impression: cockpit"

Airscale's lovely instrument bezels allow for a new panel to be made, coaming and some bits an bobs to adorn the slightly basic resin cockpit.

cheers

"I can get you a copy and I have managed to clone it from jmgt"  

it's an English language forum btw

 

if you have the cash,  Isradecal have done a full resin kit recently

http://www.isradecal.com/_p/prd1/4541044651/product/ouragan-md-450-1%3A48

 

It looks a lot more detailed than the JGMT kit,  and has a very  comprehensive decal sheet

 

I'd not be surprised to see this from a Chinese company as a injection kit sometime either, which if they are 'inspired' by the Isradecal, would  be neat, as there  are some  interesting schemes for the Ouragan,  all the Israeli, then sold to off to  El Salvador  Indian for the Indo-Pakistan conflicts, and the Patrouille De France flew them as well.

@Alexander: Bienvenido al foro Britmodeller. Muchas gracias por brindar tu información, pero, como te sugirió Troy Smith más arriba, este es un foro de modelismo en el cual los moderadores, tanto como el administrador, esperan que los usuarios posteen en inglés, así todos pueden entenderse. Hay muchos modelistas que si bien no conocen el idioma con fluidez, hacen su mejor esfuerzo para respetar esa regla.

 

Cheers,

Welcome to the Britmodeller forum. Thank you very much for providing your information, but, as Troy Smith suggested above, this is a modeling forum in which moderators, as well as the administrator, expect users to post in English, so everyone can understand each other. There are many modelers who, although they do not know the language fluently, do their best to respect that rule.

 

Alexander,  English is a very robust language, by that I mean even if not spoken fluently it can usually be understood and native speakers are used to this,  given it very widespread use worldwide.

even if  you don't  speak English, auto-translate  does work.

cheers
