Revell 1/72 Breguet Atlantic 1 "Italian Eagle"

July 10, 2023 · in Aviation · · 9 · 0.9K

Revell's new boxing was a good opportunity to explore the build of the venerable . It is a solid old school build with thick and strong plastic and seam lines to fill. Yet, thanks to the low number of parts it is a quick build that allows concentration on the combination of painting and decals of the colorful aircraft.

  1. Excellent result on the Revell kit, Rafi! A striking scheme, which you replicated perfectly!
    Congratulations!

  2. Superb result, Rafi @blackmopane
    The scheme is clearly something different and looks really nice.
    Well done.

  3. Nicely done Rafi, interesting scheme.

  4. Looks great, Rafi, those transfers went on really well.

  5. Thank you George.
    Unfortunately, Revell's decals can be somewhat stiff and you may need to take extra care with them.

  6. That came out great! Those are some wild markings on the big bird. You really handled them well - it couldn't have been easy to get those big ones in place as nice as you did.

  7. Well done Rafi! Good looking plane and markings.

  8. What an awesome paint scheme, Rafi (@blackmopane). Those large markings must have been fun to do.

  9. Thank you Geroge.
    Not quite. You need to be very precise because the margin of error for the line decals is small.
