1/48 Hitech Vautour

--------------------

 

This Hitech 1/48 scale Vautour was finished quite a while ago. It took quite a long time to finish due to the difficulty of this multi-media kit.  Apart from the rough texture and moderate fit, the kit I bought at a swap meet had some of the resin parts damaged. Other than that, the white metal landing gear and photoetched cockpit parts yielded surprising good detail.

With more than a little patience, the kit builds up to quite a hansom replica of the original. The model was finished with Gunze Sangyo paints and Isradecal markings.
