Chuck's Bloch MB 210 in 1/72 scale *Finished*
For my entry, I plan on building the old Bloch MB 210 by Heller as a aircraft flown by GB II/19 during the Munich crisis from September to October 1938. The kit will be built stock but DP Casper's "Fall Grun" (#72020) decal sheet will replace the kit decals.
On second thoughts, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place!

Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

It's French bomber of the 1930s. Of coarse it will be ugly. :Pfredk wrote:Great. Another ugly duckling, to keep my Amiot company

I do like these early French types. A very 'squared jaw' looking aeroplane. I guess Bloch by name Block by nature

I finished pre-painting the interior and begun the initial build. All-in-all, not a difficult build.

Good start. Sadly it hasn't got any less ugly
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

Thanks; and the ugly will linger as I begin painting the rudder stripes.TobyC wrote:Good start. Sadly it hasn't got any less ugly

Here is the completed product. It truly represents French bombers of the interwar period. :P
Now, back to a 1/72 scale Super Pershing.
