72modeler Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Wow! The old Heller kit can hold its own in the hands of a good modeler, which you obviously are- and brush painted natural metal, too! Very colorful scheme. Mike 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdriaN (MLT) Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 @stevej60 I had built this kit. Did you find the instructions rubbish? The decal references were all wrong and they forgot to label many decals. The hardest was trying to figure out the wing tank decals. Cant understand how your decals were of incorrect size. This is mine: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great build Adrian,yes the decal's were a pain and on mine I just got the stars to where I thought looked right as for the Alpha jet and Magister that were part of the set they're stalled right now due to the poor decals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve, which re-boxing was your Ouragan kit? I think you got the 1988 model set boxing hence the bad decals. Mine was the 2013 Ouragan one, decals were to scale. If you wish I can send you my spare Heller 1980 Magister PAdF decals. You just need to leave them facing the sun for a few weeks as they are slightly yellow.
