The LeO was a bit of a challenge. One wing was near perfect and the other a "...dog's breakfast..." , the spine was not fun either. But, all in all a successful skin.

Image

The MB 200 is a low rez model and I spent more time on it than the LeO. I had to completely redesign the wings panel to make it easier to paint and correct the mirror issues of the rear fuselage. The wings were a bit of a trip as well. I did finally find a source that had the complete markings this type carried. Most only showed the left profile and the aircraft carried a different 2 character code on both wings.

Ray, if you want to do your razzle dazzle on please use the model I have banged out.

I see that the Bloch 151-2 series is missing from the air inventory.

Image

I also see that there does not appear to be one available.

Look in the Malta aircraft inventory. There is a Bloch 151 included.

I think I'd just like to run this scenario and look at the aircraft. It's going to provide some really good screenies...

The MB152 in the Med Set is not an accurate representation of the aircraft. The fuselage far too narrow, the wings are totally wrong and the tail is a mess. To use it is like the 1960s films that use the Bf108 painted to resemble a 109. True the machines came from the same manufacture but they are not similar in shape. So, I would like to have it reworked to look more like the original. I have bent the fuselage to close to the correct shape but do not have the knowledge or skill to finish it. The dorsal spine in way off for example.

The wings on the model are like that of a dancer, slim and elegant. The prototype's wings are more like a pro wrestler, wide and robust. I haven't been able to fix this.

I need help if this one is going to get into the mix.

Many of the French aircraft I used originally were bodgeups by me, thinking they'd be temporary soloutions.

I hope Ray might might be able to sort this one, when time is available.

Don't forget, if you like Col. Gibbon's full disk props, both internal and external views, I have added them to almost all the models in the ETO, SPAW and DAW plane sets.

I even offset the props in the early 109's to correspond to the offset cockpits.
