So, the Hataka Semi Gloss Sea Blue arrived. I couldn’t wait, so here the first results. I’m happy with it.

Don’t know why I can’t raise the front. The bolt (moer) prevents it to turn ?

Lots of work creating the bulkhead. Yes, it’s called bulkhead. We say schutbord, in French it is cloison. Take your pick ?

Started on the figures, left a blast model, middle and right Bravo 6 Vietnam figures, converted to fusiler marin and a navy officer.
Still under construction, the fusilier has become a Hornet head, a different leather belt, made from masking tape and some other alterations. The officer became a “normal” long pants and also alterations at the uniform pockets

So, painting time is near. At last. Now I have to pick a color. I think it's going to be a naval air color, the colors they used on their Sikorskies.
