Gabonese Fouga : Gabon had 6 Fougas, pictures found on the internet of FI and FJ , belonging to the persidential guard, armed and in natural metal outfit
Valom kit with vacform canopy, had some problems to find a good fit. Decals are from Max Decals. Some changes made with Special Hobby spares : nose armament , and PE front antennas, rudder actuators and keel replaced by plastic parts.
Cameroon had five Fougas delivered with codes BD, BK, BL, AX and AV. Six others were ordered with E- codes, but these were not delivered. All pictures of these are made at Bordeaux, France
Maciej Bellos Good looking Magisters! Which colours did you use for the Algerian one?

Erik De Smet Thanks fellows for the likes , but wait a bit, I have more (nearly finished) Fougas. @Maciej : SH indicates Gunze / MrHobby colours in their instructions, but I use mostly Lifecolor acrylics, which are the most adapted to my limited paintig skills.

Maciej Bellos Thank you Erik! Your brush painting skills look good to me.
Having built a series of Fougas, and completing the collections, I intend to group the pictures in a more than one album with the same theme. This is the first one : African Fougas, including Morocco, Algeria and Gabon , Cameroon, and more to come
