Many thanks to all of you. Its is a great subcollection among others ;-)

We are working on the Mustang series but in the meantime my father is making a Besson MB.411 with RAF roundels.
We had a Dujin kit but we sold it so my father has to clone the pieces.

Wow, I'd never even heard of that one. I had heard of the Surcouf though :)

Funny how "unsuccessfully" service aircraft end-up with a proliferation of variants as they service tries to find some purpose for the airframes. Still who knew there were some many guises in which the Defiant appeared.

Hi,
And your father looks like such a distinguished gentleman, sitting in the spitfire cockpit.
Many thanks. I believe it was one of his best moment of his life

Many thanks Spaceowl. There are some not so common models to be done yet :roll: :roll:

Yes, James. It happens quite a lot when we start this kind of series.

Here are the final photos of the MB 411.

He done the Sptifire, Hurricane and Mosquito some time ago.

He wouldnt be able to do that without our good friend Phil Cater.
