Rafale's Progress

[Ian the Kiwi Herder]

Some self explanatory pics:












I touched-up allthose niggly wee areas that always appear after the masking is removed. Took 'bout an hour (between nappies) last night. Spent this morning uploading the photos to 'Photobucket-dot-com' and then dragging out the decal folders to decide what colours the thing is going to wear.... still not certain !

Thanks for looking.

Oh yes, very nice. Looks great. BTW, which chocolate factory did it fly through to get that colour???

I'm not a "modern aircraft" man but there is something about a "Desert" style scheme that can make anything look good.

Great stuff Ian

Schwing! How about Kuwaiti or Jordanian?

Stunning.  Especially love the wrap-around camo effect.  Well, this excerpt from my "Giving Up" magazine cover says it all:

Back from a long rest on the pending shelf. I finally got my lazy a*se around to this project again - basically I'm 'starting to finish-it-off. Dug out some things to dangle from the pylons and painted the tyres, oleo struts, burner rings etc. Finally, finally decided on a nationality for the thing so will get around to decalling later in the week.

Unfortunately the loadout I've chosen means another trip to the painting shed, but that's OK; I'll spray a load of other stuff at the same time. If I get a 'good run' at this one, there's still an outside chance that I can get it done for the Bolton Show on the 21st of this month.

Hopefully will get some pics up in the next day or so aswell. Time and nappies permitting  

Here's hoping.

Oh, what a tease!

Ian, I think you've got the hang of this whole model building thing  

Lookin' good, great paint choice for the Rafale!
