Clifford Keesler Looking good.
10. January at 02:04:39
Adam Gudynowski I would say that such a new kit had better fitting...
17. January at 11:42:21
Adam Gudynowski I've just read about PE HUD not fitting the windshield. Can you imagine that exactly the same problem is with Kinetic's Su-33?
17. January at 11:59:08
Ricardo Reis Yes, unfortunately you are very right. I saw Doog's Models' video on Youtube last year and he *cuts* the PE to fit (!!!). I was expecting that he had done something wrong, but it was not the case - the PE really d is too big.

Stephan Ryll Nice progress Ricardo

12. June at 17:23:15
Es-haq Khosravi What color did you use for the body?
12. June at 17:24:23
Ricardo Reis Thanks. I used Alclad II Aluminium and Dark Aluminium over One Shot Primer, all from Ammo. You can find some pictures in the WIP album in this same project.
12. June at 18:21:41

Ricardo Reis Cockpit is nice but a little too simple. The color callouts, however, are completely wrong.

I have both versions from them and the kit looks great in the box.

04. May at 22:13:40
Ricardo Reis Let's see how it comes out. I must confess I had high expectations but the fit is not great and the engravings are quite shallow on some parts of the kit. This is not evident in the photos.
04. May at 23:05:24
Björn Svedberg The chipping and the salt effect looks really nice!
06. May at 20:10:50
James C Looking very nice. I really like the worn and scratched paint.
30. May at 00:36:11
Ricardo Reis Thanks. It is a bit exagerated for an operating plane, but it sure was fun to do! :)

Dave Norman Beautiful finished project Ricardo. Hope my M version comes out as nice. The WIP photoalbum has highlighted problem areas for me to look out for.
19. June 2017 at 10:00:22
Ricardo Reis Thanks Dave. Yes, it seems this C version uses a lot from the M version and I had to make a few corrections: the aerial on top of the tail and small structure underside, near the exausts. And beware of the fit of the spine and engine intakes - all time spent there is important.
19. June 2017 at 10:30:32
Mike Daniels Excellent job Ricardo!! Very nice Eurof...opps, Rafale. Amazing plane. Just gone on my wishlist.

Stephan Ryll Ricardo, I think you will overcome this little issue with the NMF - the over all appearance is very nice

03. February at 21:37:07

26. February at 13:58:43
Ricardo Reis Thank you - it is a beautiful plane and a great kit from Eduard!
26. February at 15:05:17

Ricardo Reis Thank you. The AK Xtreme paints have beautiful tones!

Augusto Beautifull build! It will work as a reference for my build, specially the photo etch parts on the cockpit.
02. May at 16:53:16
Ricardo Reis Thanks, the kit is nice, but very tricky in the belly, where the intakes are glued to the fuselage. The Rafale is a beautiful plane.
03. May at 01:39:13
Augusto Thanks for the heads up! The Rafale is a beautiful plane, indeed. Can I ask you what shade of grey did you use for the plane and for the Apache missiles?
07. May at 18:32:47
Ekki Beautiful result.
07. May at 19:12:34
Ricardo Reis Thanks Ekki. @Augusto, I believe I used Gunze H307 and 317 for the main fuselage, not sure now that some time has passed. For the missiles I used MRP-133.

27. February at 07:57:53
Ricardo Reis Kit is really nice. Could probably have a better fuselage and wings fit, but no big deal - really fast build, that I'm doing while waiting for the paints of the F/A-18 and Mig-21 builds to dry! :)
27. February at 10:34:26
Dan Cook I have had the same issue with getting the wings to fit. I had to use some sprue in the cockpit area to spread the nose to fit the wings. I have boxed it up at the moment and I am going to come back to it. Frustrated me so lost my mojo a bit on it.
16. March at 11:00:38
Ricardo Reis Yes, the macro fit is a bit messy, but I think it is not as bad as it seems. Furthermore, the join lines are aligned with natural panel lines, so you can get away with a lot of messy repairs. Because of this, I used more Plastic Perfect Putty than I usually do, because it is quite easy to apply and clean with water, without much worried about sanding afterwards! :)
16. March at 15:56:45
Wim van der Luijt I like your pre-shading technique with the hard edges between panels
16. March at 16:32:32
Ricardo Reis Thanks. Let's see how much of it is visible in the end! :)
