RFC 1/48 Morane Saulnier N
« on: April 22, 2021, 05:37:46 AM »
Hi,

Finally done  :) although I did throw the last bits together as there was a break in the build while I awaited the turnbuckles- I tend to mentally check out once I start another kit (which I did).

But anyway, here she is, there is a build log too.

Wonderful work on your MS Type N, Guy.

You must be eating three shredded wheat a day to be turning your models out this quick!

Regards

Hey, your minions did a great great job here, thanks for careful supervision!
If you put it not straight in your new cabinet and lock the door, the minions will fly away with it.

Cheers,
Frank

A neat model all around, another fine addition to your collection.

Outstanding work there Guy. This is a model on my 'to do' list but its a very long list and there's much fighting among the kits for the next in line status. Your model is a real motivation to get cracking. The finish and weathering is especially effective.

Really nice Guy, and great incentive for me to get going on mine. I am still waiting for the gun to arrive from GasPatch and suspect the "COVID Snail Mail Effect" may cause me a further delay like yours! I'll study your photos while I wait, lots of very fine examples to follow here!
Cheers,
Lance

That is beautiful, Guy. You must have many (very skilled) minions.
I love the shade of red: is it MRP Richthofen Red I wonder - must check your log.

Finally ....what took so long ! ;)

This one turned out awesome Guy and I like the weathering a lot . Just the right amount which doesn't over power the over all finish .

I totally agree with the others - a very fine model indeed. Any chance that your minions could be encouraged to come to my place? Super colours and weathering effects.

Very pretty modelling, Guy. That turned out so nicely, and that oil spatter effect really works well. I really enjoy your colours on this one. Rigging looks spectacular, too.
Cheers,
Gary
