DaveJL Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Hello all, Here is my recently completed 1/48 Revell Rafale B, in the markings of Escadron de Chasse 1/4 'Gascogne', during Operation 'Chammal' over Iraq and Syria during 2018. The build thread is below. Extras used included BAM models intakes, exhausts and update set along with Wolfpack Designs ejection seats, Wolfpack updated nose and missile launchers, L'Arsenal Damocles pod, New Ware masks, Syhart decals, Renaissance models MICA IR missiles and Skunkworks MICA EM missile. Paint is overall MRP Dark Ghost Grey and the weathering is a mixture of Abteilung oils, Tamiya pigments and Flory wash. Thanks for looking and stay safe Dave 55 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Very nice! A real dirty operational Rafale! Great and realistic loadout How do the different Micas compare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great and realistic loadout How do the different Micas compare? Thanks mate! The resin missiles are a lot better than the kit parts, just some light clean up needed. The Skunkworks EM isn't much better than the kit missiles, but passible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 This is the first time I've seen a Rafale model with the external load that you used. It's most impressive. Your modeling work is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poupichoups Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Stunning. Curiously I was just searching for a 1/72 rafale kit ( there is Revell and Hobby Boss but don't know which one is better ) when I came on Britmodeller and you're the first post I saw 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard S Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Sorry very late to this one, due to a revived interest in modern jets. This is a cracker, love the weathering. I’ve just bought the C version and hope it turns out half as good as yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
