Great Pascal!
How easy (or dificult) is build this bar armour? I ordered mine to use and I'm very curious to know.
Thanks!

There are Mr. Color buffable paints that can be used with a brush, if you need such. Alclad just won't accept brushing, though.
Thanks for the warning on this - i was planning to try this on my HK B-17,now i know better !

Thanks!
The difficulty depends on your patience and cleverness experience in modelbuilding
This is not a easy kit, but result is nice.
Beware there are many mistake in the Voyager notice.
The bird cage is now totally closed before the paint job :

Pascal, Great builds on the D9R's. I got two of them and want to do one in the IDF bar armour and the other in the U.S. version. I thought I found here somewhere and can't find it was pictures of U.S. versions in Iraq in use. Dan

Pascal,
Really nice progress you have there, sir!
Your IDF D9 should look very good when finished.
Bridge the Gap, Clear the Way. ESSAYONS!
