Dassault MD 312 Flamant II
« on: July 31, 2010, 05:23:24 PM »
Hi mates  :-salut

Here is my latest kit, a Dassault MD 312 Flamant II from Azur in 1/72 scale.
I must say it's not a very good kit. There are some very important inaccuracies such as wing dihedral and sweepback, location of the horizontal tailplane and the incidence of the engines... The wheels too are inaccurate being those of the prototype... All these corrections have taken much time and the kit has been built over... three years with a break of several months !





















The real thing, in 1960 :


Cheers,

Jicehem  :-wave :-wave

Thank you mate,  :-salut :-salut :-salut :-salut
This kit is not easy and needs so much improvements that that will be too long to describe them...
I had the project to build two others (MD 311 and MD 315) but I renounced...

Cheers,
