VERY nice work!

Excellent project, watching. The Argentine Étendard aircraft were effective in causing significant damage during the Falklands/Malvinas conflict.

Modeling is enough for today. I'll continue tomorrow.

Looks very promising!

And, in conclusion, a short video about French "Etandards" and other deck-based aircraft, after which I want to build the F-8 Crusader as well. It looks too unusual! 🙂

I am 100% with you. Having seen Super Etandards and french Crusaders in a book about french aircraft carriers made me wanna build those too. The french livery makes both planes look very elegant.

Gerald
Hello Welcome here 🙂

Hello Gerald how are you? I'm new on this site, just trying to figure out how to purchase an item. Is this site only if I have something to sell? Thanks, Phil

John
Fantastic build and presentation Mark. 👍 I love the display base with the mottled/splinter colors of each aircraft too. I'm still sticking with Tamiya paints though... 😉

Mark Sherwood
Thanks John. I've got say even though I've just become a Fanboy of AKRC there's still a place in my heart for Tamiya Paints, they were a vast improvement over the Humbrol tinnies back in the mid to late seventies as where the kits over Airfix. 🤘🥸🤟

Mark Sherwood
Thanks for the like Nordmito. 🤟🥸🤘

John
I may give the AKRC a try. I'm just used to how the Tamiya paints behave, dilutions that work for my airbrush, etc. If I understand correctly, the AKRC paints are also acrylic lacquers like Tamiya and Mr. Hobby so they should work with the same thinners and such. They do have a good color range compared to Tamiya for sure.

Mark Sherwood
Yep. You're right John, lacquer based acrylics, as far as I can tell same formula different bottles. I did have some reservations about RLM02 1938 wether it was the right colour though. I used AK's thinners. I'd test on some plastic card with X-20 and Mr Hobby thinners to see how they behave, which I haven't done yet just ploughed on through with appropriate thinners to get the project over the line. Having said that I would still use Tamiya paints. I just got seduced by AK3G and like most affairs it did not work out well. On that note Atom and any new acrylic will be kicked into touch.🤣👍🥸🤘🥸🤟🤣

Mark Sherwood

Nice work 👍

Rui S
Great pair 👍 would be Nice to see a photo with rotating Propellers 🤔

Mark Sherwood
Thank you James and Rui S. Rui with my temperament installing electrics (I have problems with the 3 phase at work!) It's enough just to get them built and painted 🤣 and if you mean those discs, I was never a fan. 🤘🥸🤟

Guy Rump
Great job and presentation. 👍

Rui S
Hi Mark, None of those, I would say touch them to get them rotating and then take the photo 🤔
That is, if they are not glued ofcourse 😉

Mark Sherwood
Rui. They're not that loose. Cackhanded me would probably break the propeller as the spinner describes an arc to the carpet. 🤣🤟🥸🤘🤣

Gary Curling
