If I can get enough correct information I surely will.

I finished the test build of the moroccan F-16D (1:300 upscaled to 1:200).

I ripped off the canopy and glued a new one over its remnants. It looks a bit better even if I'm still not satisfied.

I was about to glue the main landing gear in place when I realized I made a mistake when designing the MLG doors: they open the wrong way! I removed the doors, cut the well from the door and reassembled theparts in the correct order so the doors open from the top and not the bottom.

Test-builds are good!

Nice recolor, Carlos.

Here are mine for the A-4F. Oh and the blue angels scheme comes with 6 tails.
I think I need a little break now. time to build something.

started building a "slightly" recolored aircraft from Yoav. Just for need to doing something else.
Yet I do not have the skills, the patience nor the vacuum formed canopy.

Wow ! these skyhawks are looking good !

Good job with the Mirage, I used to work on a french one too but the tail fin stoped me, I hope you will have more luck (and also courage) to complete it !
(Funny cause I'm currently building your Mirage IIIC, with the same livery)
Best regards,
Ronan

Well, I guess my courage was not that big.
So I returned to recoloring the next version of the list: the A-4G.
Profiles coming soon.

YOAV

Thanks, Yoav
I reduced the model to a smaller scale with 2 pager on one A4 page (minus borders). At this moment it is hard to estimate the scale, but I should be close to 1/50.

Very nice. Definitely looking better now.
