Revell 1/144 - Dassault Rafale M - Completed

DSC02078

The recently finished fantastic little kit from Revell of Germany Dassault Rafale M, the Navy variant.
Really excellent little, which you can tell see in photos the great panel lines and screw marks which come out really nice after a wash.

One thing i should replace it the front landing gear, after assembly i realised how chunky that is, will have to replace next time if ever build this kit again, two-seater variant please Revell.

Built straight out of the box, no scratch building and painted using Vallejo Air Light Gray.

Decided to do a 3 fuel tank version, can also model a one fuel tank with 2 extra weapons on the wings.

Really fine lines on the missiles which means you can get some water down paint to run into nicely.
Reckon that no missile would have its name on but the decal was available and i liked the idea on a little magic added.
