My Dewoitine D.500 in progress and finished!
The start!
A test with an old acrylic...too diluted ????
At the end, I used a light grey 🙂

(Part 1/3) Comparing the sprue to a technical drawing it's easy to understand that the fin it's too small...So I add a styrene part.
(Part 2/3) Filling with putty...
(Part 3/3) Finishing with sanding paper and polish...
Some simple details
Model ready for a soap wash to remove sanding and polishing compound dust
I will realise the inner plane, based in Reims in 1937
Print Scale decals are very good, maybe a bit too thick but easy to be treated with Microscale liquids. The symbol is perfect !
My only doubt concerns the blue colour, that is maybe too clear?

Applying the landing gears is the most difficult step: there are no clear signs or guidelines
In display with my some others models.
Quite happy with the results...
PROs : general aspect of the model, finishing and decals
CONs: some filling are not good...and the right landing gear is crooked...

did you get rid of that yellowing of the decals with sunlight?
or did you use other ones?

@Johan: I didn't use the decals from the kit, I got some news decals from Printscale (a brand fron Ukraine). They are very good, you can see an example in pic 16.
Thanks for the compliments!
