Md 450 ouragan - new bird

[YOAVHOZMI]

hello friends

these days i started a new model....the MD 450 OURAGAN

i wanted to take my little one MD 450 in 1:50 scale that i build in 2008 , but i noticed he has some problems of similarity to the real thing a it is a little bit not symmetrical at the longitudinal axis.....it was one of my first work of re-designing models with photoshop and i did not have an experience.

so i decided to create an entirely new model.


my good friend Yaron helped me with Autocad and made me a basic fuseladge according to the drawing and sketch that i made and send him.

the fuselage is very simple and has a cylindrical and symmetrical body for the entire length.


i asked Yaron to make me a lot of lines a long the whole fuselage, so it will be easy for me to install panels and other stuff.

i did the canopy by myself and put it on the model for Illustration.



so here is the first basic pictures of the white MD-450 prototype.

the next step is to fill the fuselage with panels, scrwes, rivets and scripts with symbols.

regards

YOAV

Always enjoy watching you design Yoav. This will be as interesting as your other great builds.

Great project, YOAV. I always learn a lot form your designs and builds. The Ouragan was a classic 1950s jet fighter. I look forward to seeing your new version take shape.
