Metal paint has been applied. Decals and details to come later. Not much interest in this one these days. It sits and becons, but alas, so many projects so little time.

I am not satified with the silver results. I may redo in cam colours.

The Vautour only took a little over two years with lots of shelf time in between. Home made decals and "Evergreen" plastic rods and tubes finally completed the project.

A comparison of other 1950 aircraft in 1/144 scale. The Canadian CF-100, American F-100 and French MD-450.
