Viva La France. 1/72 Paris tribute

Post by timtamtung »

Given the tragic events that unfolded recently over Paris, I thought I would build some French planes as a small tribute to a great nation.
I noticed that I didn't have any French planes or vehicle in my cabinet so these two came up in mind.

Rafale: 1/72 Italeri. (looks right, but not a really good kit. Raised panels, limited detail...)
Spad: 1/72 Revell. (I like dem colours + decals)

Tried panel lines for the first time, using Tamiya's weathering master set. I like it, what do you reckon? My attempt of panel lining as I don't use airbrush.
