Here is the winch, a small model to him alone. The roof (system SYREBOH) with its GPS antenna. A cut in the canopy will be necessary... Here is the stencil with the MARINE and the numbers of the 5 machines concerned by Berna decals sheet. Finally, the beautiful documentation CD (thanks Renaud) in which is contained a photoscope of the machine as well as photos of 5 machines concerned by Berna decals sheet. Be careful ... limited edition... If you are interested in this conversion, please contact me by MP or email: pinpin40olive@orange.fr Those who have already begun to receive

This is the seat of the Revell model with the original part of the survival kit and the modified part. For survival kit, the wool bonnet is made with milliput glued of sodium bicarbonate. The effect is quite realistic even after moulding. The canvas of the cargo compartment lining is made of wrapping paper. Olive

Here are the MK4 French seats. Those who are in the MK3 and MK88 kits are quite different to the back and especially survival kit. This is the seat of the Revell model with the original part of the survival kit and the modified part. Olive

Hi all, Update today on the cockpit. Despite the time passed since my last update, I do not stayed inactive on the conversion. I started by adjusting the parts in resin of the dashboard. The fit is perfect as you can see on the pictures. The sheet Eduard has added many details for the interior of the cockpit. I have hesitated during a long time before changing the seats of the Revell kit and enclose them to the conversion. In view of photos of the doc and the pieces of kit, it could not be otherwise. I therefore modified the three seats, including survival kit and seat back to be more i

Hello, Thanks for your comments. For rivets, I used sheets Archer ref: 88014, 88016, 88022 I also used sheet Micromark, en HO ref: 84985. For the tail, I used the sticky of aluminum. For my F-8P(FN) Crusader 1/32 Trumpeter + scratch, here is the link of mounting in France. http://fighters.forumactif.com/vos-montages-avions-helicos-f2/f-8pfn-crusader-1-32-trumpeterscratch-t24786.htm Here are some pictures of my F-8P(FN) Crusader at 1/32 and more for fun.

Hello Thanks for your comments. I believe that some parts of the conversion can be used for British Army Lynx versions but also for other versions of Lynx. Yes, I think I'll sell this conversion. Olivier

Here is a new which will delight all lovers of the French Lynx. Indeed, Berna decals has accepted our project's decal on the Westland WG-13 Lynx Mk4 (FN) at 1/32. Therefore, available next week. This sheet is available in 1/72, 1/48 and 1/32 scale. The decals sheet Berna on Westland WG - 13 Lynx Mk 4 (FN) ref. BD 32-33 : You can order these sheets of decals at this address: Xbpro@aol.com Here are the proposed decorations : -N ° 804 - flottille 34E - frégate Dupleix - Mission ZMOI (Indian Ocean) 2012 -N ° 808 - CEPA - Hyères 2011 -N ° 811 - flottille 34E - Lanvéoc N ° 276 - flottil

Now here's the complete beam casting. The aim was to achieve a molding without too much failure but especially to keep the definition of rivets. Now, I'm not a professional, so I request a bit of indulgence, and for my level English too... Let’s look at photos. You can see the picture resolution of the rivets. olivier

Finally, I'll mold again this beam that will be in two parts. To be "moldable", I therefore simplified the system of folding at least simple. I also inverted the fastening system between the beam and the aft fuselage of the Lynx. I also represented the locations of the various antennas under the beam, as you can see on the pictures.

Now my beam is ready for the long installation of rivets. Being only an average designer, forgive me, if I forgot some rivets... I used the Archer rivets and the Micromark in order to have different thicknesses. I preferred to use softener Mark Softer instead of micro sol. Olivier

That is what must look like my Lynx Mk4 beam. Olivier

Now parts took the direction of the workshop of moulding and this is the result. There are still a few flaws but overall everything is well usable especially with all these embossed rivets. I did so that the nose is adjustable with a minimum of cutting resin. But this item causes me the most worries with moulding. I decided to modify the beam of the Revell Lynx. The tail of the Lynx Mk 4 is very special and very different from this one of the base Revell Mk3. One might even say that every beam of Mk4 is unique because there is none identical. Let see the achievement of t

The oil cooler air inlet duct which needed be changed. As you can see the revel item looks like not at all the true machine. After modification Olivier

-the horizontal plane AR. The pictures of the machine to compare... Finally, I enhanced the cargo doors photodec Eduard, inside. Before sending the items in order to be molded, it seemed that I had forgotten some changes on certain parts. I finally decided change the outside of the two cargo doors and embellish with rivets. I also made so that the left cargo door looks like the right one. I think that the upgrade will have been beneficial. I also changed «the oil cooler air inlet vent» located front engine covers and 'hinged lid', who is on the fairings of nozzles. Revell item

-Engine covers: The pictures of the machine to compare. Olivier

-The sponsons: I added locations for medium throw- snares, throw- snares, and throw-snares catch. I also modified the right cover which has no pressure gauge. The pictures of the machine to compare... Olivier

You can see the positioning of the receiver OTPI The pictures of the machine to compare... Olivier

-It begins with the nose: I reworked it to give, to my mind, its shape so special : the grate, I prefer finally that of the Board Eduard. Olivier

Now, here are the realized items with 3D files and made in resin. They will fit on the Revell model parts: Complete scoreboard, box pharmacy, shears and fire extinguisher. lure-laucher The complete winch. Media - lance torpedoes. All antennas, doppler and receiver... And finally the support and its gun AA-52. I found that the items made in scratch, lacked realism. So, I decided to modify these items before molding, adding rivets embossed. The whole model will benefit from this method of rivets in decal. Here is the reworked parts. [/url Olivier
