Yes, it is also present on the photos of the book about the Renard 31...

I finally managed to "build" the machinegun and the wing...

stunning mate !

[draken35]

Thank you.  On hold actually, just the time to finish the Dornier

[draken35]

Back to the Renard 31!
I think it's better to begin the painting phase with the upper surfaces, because I will use some Vallejo metal paints for the lower surfaces and it's better to  mask the khaki once painted.
So, masking phase... Not finished; next time the wing...

Few hours of mask work for few minutes of airbrushing... plastic modelers life

[draken35]

Exactly 😂

[modellius]

yep, sad truth.... hours of masking/unmasking for 2.5 minutes of spraying.....

[draken35]

The primer revealed some defaults on the back of the fuselage and on the front of the wing; so I had to use Tamiya White Putty... Sanding done; now new primer to be applied...

Now look so smooth, after update this will be perfect

[draken35]

Hope so my friend.
Have forgotten to say that i've removed the photoetch parts of the undersurface of the wing... This will facilitate the forthcoming manipulations. Photoetch will be replaced just before painting the undersurfaces

[modellius]

nice corrections, will be great to see it painted

[draken35]

Thank you. I have put masks on the undersurfaces of the wing again; ready for a new primer...

[draken35]

White primer again... All is OK now

[No.1]

Paints lets go

[draken35]

Yessss!
