CliffB Posted October 17, 2020 Author Share Posted October 17, 2020 Time for an update. The Alclad work is finished. Just a few non-metallic colours to add, plus the decals and nose probe. Cheers 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CliffB Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 And we're finished. No real dramas, although I've just realised that the 'trident' logos are probably too large (unless Heller know something that I don't!). The Trident brings the total number of French aircraft in my 1/100 scale collection to a massive four. Not surprisingly, all the others are Heller kits too Thanks to all of you who have supported this build and especially to the multitude of (heavenly?) hosts. I would really like to build a Caravelle too, so may well be back with one later on. Cheers 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Simply put.., that’s bloody beautiful!! Well done Cliff, another small bit of plastic that you’ve managed to convert into a little gemstone. Cheers and very well modelled.. Dave. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightningboy2000 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Fantastic, neat looking jet! Very sci-fi looking, good enough for a gallic Dan Dare! I'd be tempted to build a whif swept wing operational version! Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyW Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Beautiful! We have first class examples of both ends of the modelling spectrum in this GB. This magnificent little plane at one end, with it's bare bones simplicity, all the way up to the quite incredibly complex 1.8 Scale Citroen 15 at the other. We are certainly getting spoilt rotten here. Tony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I built one of these in the mid sixties. And the Alize. They were a few pence cheaper than Airfix kits. I don't think I realized back then, the difference in scale to 1/72nd. Yours has undoubtedly turned out better than mine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
