Hi there,

This is one of the companion piece of my Char Renault D2
the base kit is the (very) old Heller one - back to the 70's







and after finishing the engine ( still a lot to do anyway to complete the whole paint job )

Hi Yvan,
Great build & detailing
I have this kit along with a detail set from Azimut to build & your Gnome has given me an incentive to start.
Look forward to the next updates
