Morane-Saulnier L type//Eduard//1:48
« on: April 20, 2017, 05:02:11 PM »
Hello,
Finally done. Morane Saulnier,  “Parasol” type no. 356….
The Eduard kit manufactured in mid 90’s previous century was commonly known as first “multimedia” kit with small amount of plastic sprues & 2 sheets of PE parts. The main problem during whole assembly was associated with finding the way of resembling thin black top lines on wings curbs. That was managed with black thin pencil, but was kind of brainstorm experience, which hold the work for a while
I would encourage all of you having this kit not to be afraid of crude initial base as it is fully manageable. I am going to stick in 90’s for a while and try to do the assembly with Fokker D.VI as well.






regards
K

Krzysiek this is absolutely beautiful model. I really like the way you painted and weathered it! Everything is balanced and spot on! You've done a great job on this slightly crude kit. Congratulations my mate.
Best regards

Very fine build, Krzysiek! Staining on the fuselage is especially well done.

An outstanding result Krzysiek, the rigging in especially well done and the fuselage staining is superb, you have made a dated crude kit look a million dollars, well done.

She's truly extraordinary, Krzysiek! Every aspect is first rate, from the cockpit detail to painting and weathering.  I have a soft spot in my heart for these old kits.  I look forward to seeing you work you magic on the D.VI.
Cheers,
Bud

Considering the age of the kit and  the fact that it is actually more complicated and difficult. Than it looks, you have done a superb job. Admirable skills, sir.

Cheers
