This one will not be uncomplicated...

starting a new one is the best. right after buying more and more kits 😄

Marius
Erik, I realized soon after what you meant, yes, there were a few challenging steps, but considering the small size of the model, progress is still relatively fast.

Cuajete
Interesting... Nice start 👍

Cool! looking forward to the brown/blue camouflage... I find this to be a really intriguing combination!

Łukasz Gliński
That's gonna be another beauty in your collection, isn't it? 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Good work so far on this demanding kit. Keep it up!

Marius
Thank you guys for the interest!

I think if worked with care, this one has good chances to end up a beauty, since there are so many small details concentrated on such a small aircraft.
Painting should start soon, I am also very curious how this camouflage scheme will look at the end. I am planing later also an Israeli Vautour II in this same scheme.

Michael Kohl
I am in too. I particularly appreciate the background information you always provide with your builds. Very interesting.

Tom B.
Camo is looking neat so far 👍 I want to do a Sa´ar in the same scheme... just found that one of AKs "Aces High" Editions focussed on French jets has a chapter dedicated to painting this israeli scheme... However I propably won´t be able to free-hand the shapes... I assume you used some kind of masking for the hard transition, also?

Bernd Grün
Nice start, Marius. Following with interest. 👍

Marius
Thank you for the interest and messages Bernd, Michael and Tom!
@Tom:
I have to admit that I didn't do extensive research on this one, which kind of isn't my style. From what I have understood from the few historical photographs, it seems there was indeed a hard transition between the colours in my opinion, especially if you reduce the real size to 1:72. Indeed, I used masking, I don't see any other way.

Looks great with colors and decals 👍

Cuajete
Nice progress 👍

Raphael Bernecole
Awesome, i like it a lot 🙂

Stuart Fowle
Great looking project and build.

Sylvain Vernier
Valom is not the easy way, but your build looks great. 👍
All the tiny fins will add value, but considering the number, it looks like a punishment for me 😭
Masking for paint certainly was the right solution for me too. Waiting for the next step 👀

Michael Kohl
Nice progress

Cuajete
Looks great so far 👍

Thank you everybody for the appreciation! I did not expect it to be honest.

I guess a Vautour IIN in a similar livery will soon be on my workbench.
