cger Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Hi Russ, thanks for sharing, this is a nice tribute to this forgotten war. The french even used for some times captured japanese aircraft, Ki 43 Oscars and even an A6M2-N Rufe, regards, Christian. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polo1112 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Russ, your models are simply fantastic and very realistic!!! I am French, but have never been interested in French schemes or aircraft. But now, I have to say you did a fantastic job on these planes and I can say I would be interested today in those aircraft and their colour schemes. You did a wonderful job !!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Masters Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Love the weathering. It really shows how old some of these craft were by the time they were used in the late 40s and early 50s...I especially like the Corsair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jean Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Hi Russ, top notch models, every single one of them. I am a sucker for Corsairs and Invaders, so you now know my favorites! Not the most glorious French war, but the aircraft were all incredibly iconic! Great show and congrats JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radpoe Spitfire Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 What a fantastic collection which represents many from the forgotten aspect of the post 1945 indo China conflicts. May only (constructive) criticism is that an Aimoit built (Ju 52) tri motor is missing. Other than that, a superb collection 🖒🖒 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
