Looking nice.
However it seems the set of the camo colours for the Armee de l'Air should consist of a little bit different ones.

 

[fastmongrel]

The dark greenish colour is Francais kaki
the blue/grey is Gris bleu fonce
the brown is RAF dark earth

So 2/3 rds is correct French Air Force colours.

Ok.

I have found their canopies to be..."chunky", though it looks like yours is pretty clear which is nice.

I gave the outside of the canopy a good polish with toothpaste as it had a rough patch that looked like a moulding flaw. The inside wasn't too bad. Took a good bit of filing to fit the canopy it was too long and the right hand side too deep.

I was very careful with it knowing the chance of getting a replacement was about the same as finding hens teeth.

Nice work so far!

Found some spare French roundels and fitted machine gun and cannon barrels to finish off.

Love what you've done with the canopy
