Heller Caudron C.714
Build of the 1/72 Caudron C.714. The much newer kit from RS Models was used as a pattern to improve the old Heller kit.

Comparing the RS models (brown) with the Heller (grey) wing.

Highly necessary wheel well detail was addded to the Heller kit

The Heller cockpit. Look, it says: 'Heller'..

Highly necessary cockpit detail was added

The aft cockpit and the rest of the fuselage also got some attention

Undersides in gris-blue clair

Upper sides in gris-blue foncé

Oh wow! Haven't you added the WiP pics I'd find it hard to believe it's Heller. Respect for your perseverance, I'm gonna go straight for the RS kit instead😉

Thanks! I copied even more from the RS Models kit than shown in the pics; I used some of the RS decals as well since the Heller decals were badly out of register, and I also made white metal copies of the RS wheels to replace the tiny Heller ones.
