  Here is my T-6G model. I always be attract by this "Shark Mouth", I think it is the most impressive one ever worn by a airplane. So when Revell had re-edited this old Monogram Scale model, I bought it.

  Voici mon T-6G. J'ai toujours trouvé cette "gueule de requin" magnifique, je trouve que c'est l'une des plus impressionnantes jamais portée par un avion. Aussi, quand Revell a réédité ce vieux model Monogram, je n'ai pas hésité.

  As I say, it's an old Monogram Model. As usual, you can find his "pedigree" engrave under one of the stabiliser : "MMC 1979". By this time I was fourteen and Monogram Models was the better ones. They are still good, even the quality standards improves every day.

  Comme je le disais, c'est un ancien modèle Monogram. Comme c'est l'usage, on trouve le "pédigrée" du moule original, gravé sous l'un des stabilos : MMC (Monogram Models Company) 1979. J'avais 14 ans et à cette époque, les modèles Monogram étaient les meilleurs. Ils le sont toujours, même si les standard de qualité augmentent presque tout les jours.

  I don't add lot of job on this model. I re-scribe it. For armement, their was only "gun pods", so I create -from plastic sheet and spare parts-, rockets pods and rocket rails. I also improve the motor.

  Je n'ai pas beaucoup rajouté de choses sur ce modèle. Je l'ai regravé en creux. Le seul armenent fourni consistait en 2 pods canons, aussi j'ai recréé - à partir de chutes plastiques et de pièces extraites de la boîte à rabiot- , les paniers à roquettes, les roquettes classiques et leurs rails. J'ai aussi amélioré le moteur.

  The painting job was made by hand. The Shark Mouth was a decal, and with specific products, it was not so hard to do.

  La peinture a été réalisée à la main. La gueule de requin était founie en décal, et avec les produits spécifiques pour faciliter la pose, ce ne fût pas trop dur.

  It was a pleasure to build this model and his final look is impressive ... even the T-6 was more a teacher than a warrior ...

  Construire ce modèle fût très agéable et son aspect final a quelque chose d'impressionnant ... même si le T-6 fût plus un "enseignant" qu'un guerrier ...
