OOB build of a great looking plane

Sy Bar
To add detail to cockpit I used the new "Real Colors Markers" they work well with great coverage and so far the "brush" tip makes the job easy and natural

Flop_Se
Very nice so far! 👍🏻

Alex K
Intéressant! 👍

Fantastic job so far. Following!

No way these figures are 1/72, are you sure you picked the correct scale in the description? 😮

Eric Duval
Thank you so much. Yes it is really 1/72 😉

Robert Podkoński
Beautiful! Now I am shy to assemble the same kit... it will never turn out so pretty 😉

Guy Rump
Great job! 👍

Łukasz Gliński
What a beauty! 👍

Ronan
Excellent résultat mon cher Eric 👍

István Szücs
Interesting project!

J35J
I'm in for the flash flesta 😅👍🏻

Robert Podkoński
Make yourself comfortable, István and J35J. This will be surely a long party... 😉

István Szücs
Robert, almost you'd build an A-Model kit

Robert Podkoński
Believe me, István, A-model kits are much more modeller-friendly than Mach 2... Take a look here, for example: modelingmadness.com/..korean/us/hammx2.htm

That's something to be excited about. Mach2 kits don't have the reputation of being shaking kits. 👍

Martin
As I said on the project, I wish you luck with this, it is something you seldom see, but it looks cool in the end. It is quite a long time ago when I did mine - al the best!

and, so far it does not look that bad for a mach2

S M
Gotta see this! 😄

John Hughes
This looks very Gerry Anderson, so I'm in!

Robert Podkoński
What an audience I have... I feel a bit under pressure now 😉 @Martin - you're right, at least the polistyrene seems to be of a good quality.

Guy Rump
I'm watching as well Robert 🙂 👍

Ekki
And me.

Robert Podkoński
Feel warmly welcomed, Mates!

Mid Franconian
Extra like for the striking project title 😂! I expected an old KP kit first…

Bruce Huxtable
Soo many seams.... Watching this tutorial for sure 😉. OMG, Robert, that's quite a critique of MACH, kits.... Good Luck!

Ben M
It's such a cool subject, I remember seeing it in my dads airplane books when I was young.

Ludvík Kružík
Robert, once again you have chosen a great topic. The French experimental jet powered Leduc aircraft looked really futuristic at the time of its creation.
I wish you strong nerves and a lot of fun building your model!

Robert Podkoński
Now I feel even more pressure 😉 ... @Bruce - I know what I am talking about, I have completed a few models from both producers already 😉 @Ludvik - I was lucky enough to see both Leduc 010 and 022 in Le Bourget museum and they still look futuristic imho 🙂

Alex K
Indeed - congrats 👍 👍

Agnius
Thank you! 🙏

Andrew P
Beautiful work!
How did you get it to sit on its nose and not on its tail?

Dominik Weitzer
love it! what a wonderful looking plane. well done!

bughunter
Lovely little Cessna 👍

Ben M
This is great. Warms my heart because a friend once let me take the controls of a 172.

Guy Rump
Very nice! 👍

Mark Sherwood
That's just lovely. 🤘🥸🤟

The cockpit is very puritanical, but unfortunately there is not enough documentation on it. The fit of the parts is very poor and needs a lot of filling and sanding.

My biggest issue was fitting the seat and the mid portion of the wheel bay, had to add 1 mm plastic card on both sides. Looking forward seeing it done! 👍

Nagy-Meszler Csaba
komoras, I encountered the same problem: the landing gear bay cannot be fitted where it is intended. I used a milling head to remove enough of it to fit.

gorby
Interesting aircraft, interesting build.
Incidentally, I would suggest 'Spartan' as a better way to describe the cockpit rather than 'puritanical'. 👍

Nagy-Meszler Csaba
Finished. Unfortunately it has a few mistakes, but an interesting item for my collection.

Robert Podkoński
Looks fabulous. Good job, Csaba!

Nagy-Meszler Csaba
Thank you!
Something I noticed after the model was finished: the drawing in the painting instructions shows a circular hatch or cover on the top of the fuselage, in front of the cabin. At first I thought I had sanded it down and not scratched it back, but in that photo, when it's not primed, you can see that it wasn't on the fuselage. I don't know if it was on the original plane.
Also missing from the right wing tip is a pitot tube or antenna, which is visible in the original photos, but I didn't notice it until too late.

Nicolas
Looks good.

gorby
Fantastic result!

Łukasz Gliński
Very neat indeed 👍

S M
Very well painted! Pretty model!

Nagy-Meszler Csaba
Thank you guys!
I just added the missing pitot tube from the wing. 😎
