RonanThanks Harry, on the original model the rear doors are flat. On many Dauphin the rear doors are bulged and NACA air scoop is missing ...

Neal ParkesNice start Ronan. Are you building this as one the Marine Nationale's SAR Dauphins?

Felix TroschierHi Ronan, I love your build so far - I wonder how you will do the intake mesh covers.

Spanjaardlooking excellent.
you may want to check this for mesh inoxia.co.uk/products/mesh they have some very thin ones....

Bart GoesaertNice work as usual. Some thea-bags also have fine mesh. Look for the triangular ones.

CuajeteThanks Ronan, Spanjaard and Bart.
Spanjaard, Which of these do you think may be most appropriate for 1/72?

Daniel KlinkI ask myself why did they choose a box design which is so close to the last Matchbox releases? Happenstance?

RonanMany thanks😉
@Harry : in my humble opinion, it's the best representation of the Dauphin in this scale. No big issues, the biggest issue is the rear doors shape but like all other kits you have always something to add for a better accuracy like the hoist winch...😉

Laurent VILLANUEVA "HELLER-forever"yes ROnan, a future kit to panther and dauphin USCG shortly

Bart GoesaertSuperb work, stunning as always... When will you post pics of the model instead of the reference?

Nils Steyaertexcellent work, i used to see them fly over all the time when i still lived in Ostend, Belgium (where this helicopter flies NHV, who leased this particular machine to the Aeronavale).

GlennNice work Ronan, I just got their new long nose HH-65C/D USCG and the AS-565 Panther with the special black 100th anniversary scheme! Both have a new long nose made from resin and a few other bits and pieces!
