"Baroudeur"

Hi everybody......it's been a long time since I last posted an article, but this is my latest project.  This is an easy to build resin kit,  just be careful as some of the pieces are very thin and difficult to adjust.  I just modified the seat because the kit seat is wrong.  Decals are very very nice.  I used the new metallic paint from GUNZE.

The "Baroudeur" is a French prototype jet airplane, it was in the NATO contest against Fiat G91, Breguet"TAON", Dassault "Etendard".
"Baroudeur" takes off with a wagon and lands without gear only an "ice skate" from anywhere.  It lost the contest to the Fiat G91.

I hope you like it.
