Here's a fine build article of AZmodel's 1/48 scale Morane Saulnier MS 406 by Andrew Beard (CMOT70). Like Andrew wrote: you can't go past those yellow and red markings can you?

Thanks!

nicely done model Andrew !

yes it looks pretty, or at least the Vichy stripes do ..horrrible a/c though

Nice masking trick, but - oh the horror of misaligning. This is the reason why I seldom show more than one side of my planes here. Symmetry is not always easy to find, but you made i great recovery Andrew. Nice finish, and beautiful colours.

Hi Andrew

A great Feature and a great finished model!

Keep 'em coming!

Thanks for the posative comments.

Actually i have to admit that i was only expecting it to be a photo feature! Jean-Luc went the extra yard and compiled my build blog notes into a full feature, thanks Jean-Luc. Next time just let me know, and i'll do the compiling part myself and send it! I'm sure you're busy enough as it is.

Andrew:

It turned out great. Beautiful markings, and the paint work is wonderful.

Nice paintjob - a very nice and colourful model.

Thanks for sharing

Hi all,




Andrew, I was about to publish the article as a photo feature but I wanted to include some informations about the model. So I read the original thread again and I realized that the text would make a nice build feature without too much additional work... I think the result was worth the extra effort!




What!!!

By the way, in France, we say about "Vichy" aircraft that they are wearing pyjamas.

Jean-Luc

Nice one Jean-Luc!

Thanks for spotting the potential and going the extra mile - the result is definitely worth the effort.

All the best

Rowan
