Hello,

Once again, I don't remenber...

Has this one been here ?

Monogram kit, released in 1966... French Squad, 1944. Built in 2009.

More pics to come from the process if not already seen...

Bye for now !

AE.

Nice work on true Monogram Classic...  Your MNF is really well-done.  Takes a brave man to do a NMF on a kit that takes that much filling & sanding...  

(SEE you nay-sayers? It CAN be done...)

Man, that's nice! Very realistic - one of the nicest NMF's I've ever seen.

Very nicely done!  Love the weathering on the NMF.

IMHO the weathering is overdone, but otherwise a very nice build.

It does look quite used, but well done that way.  Is it the airplane St. Exupery went missing in?

Very nice!   Your work on the kit's seams really paid off, and the finish looks very realistic.

You've done that classic kit proud!

Regards,

Brad
