Hi everyone

I recently built Marek's Bloch MB-152 in Vichy colors in 1/50
I choose this model because i like this airplane and the colors were very attractive.
My father and I thought that this plane will be better with a plastic canopy .
I add the panels, the gauges and the seat and my father made a pilot with some ?Patafix?

I don't know how to name this thing in english, anyway he did a really good job.

I used abrasive paper to do the anti slip plates, I paint them in black.
As you can see it on the third picture, by always climbing to the left the pilot scratched the paint on the wing by removing the mud on his boots.

This model was too " last from the factory" so I had some ( maybe a lot ) soot around the canon and many oil stain.
The model was not difficult and have many details ( for exemple the Gnome Rhone engine is inclined to the left as the real one, to counter the couple effect ? )
I realize after that the flaps were designed to be push down when the hydraulic preasure was falling. That's why on the ground those planes had their flaps on lower position. In my case this was to late to do this :( But I can still adding them ... one day

Here is the real one.Red 15, Taken in 1942 in Lyon, 100km from my city.
