My recent whatif projects: Rafale BM in U.S Navy service. The pilots are from Hasegawa F-16. The Rafale BM is from Revell kits; by mixing Rafale C and M. Apologize for the crappy quality of the photos. Looks like Id still need to switch back to iPhone.

Looking Good! Nicely weathered.. a real "used" looking plane, very convincing!

I'm not a great lover of the Rafale for some reason (can't quite put my finger on what the particular thing is that doesn't gel so to speak) but that does look nice  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I'm the opposite. I do love the Rafale but don't really know why, just do. It's not even ugly-sexy like my other favourite jet, the A-7, but it has, for me, that mysterious something.

Great job, Firefox! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

If I didn't have my 1/48 Rafale B up for sale I'd be building it as a RAN bird (my M is going to be a Royal Australian Marines CAS/Strike version).

Very nice, and I dare say a better steed for the Marines/navy than the legacy hornets.

That's a great job of dirtying it up... and my wife doesn't even believe that's a skill!
Thanks!

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Cool!!   I always dig it when the "Sundowners" type of fin decorations are used.  Looks great!

You gave me an idea of the leftover. I guess it would be a Rafale C since I  married the B and M to get the BM. An RAAF CAS, perhaps...
