Wow! Nice work. I wondered how soon we would see one of these finished. What paints did you use for the French five color?

Very nicely done, it's great to finally see one of these displayed here, I love the colours you used.

I used Model Master Pale Green and Dark Green, Tamiya Nato Brown and Dark Yellow as well as plain old Flat Black..

If I may... The model is most probably very nice. But the photos are not and they make the model assessment difficult or even impossible. I am sorry to say this, however, let me suggest you to:
1) buy a sheet of monochrome paper for the background
2) set your camera for smaller aperture (larger f index) to increase the field depth
3) 2) will lead to longer times so a tripod will be necessary.
Try to do this and in this way you will:
1) do a proper justice to your work on this fine model,
2) let us enjoy your build almost as much as you (certainly) enjoyed building it.

PS. I hope you will not take my remarks as an offence, they are supposed to be just fellow's pieces of advice.

I think that is pretty good advice for all of us, Prze.  Thanks from me.

Ernie :)

Not only a joy to build Cgandiaga but also a joy to look at. Beautiful build, excellent camo paint, nice rigging, wonderful prop. All very neat. Congratulations.

I was wondering when we'd see one of these. Thanks for showing off this beauty.
