Wow nice work Cyclon. I really like the texturing and font work all over the seat. The only thing I would do is maybe to tone down the belts a little(the yellow is too bright). Just an opion.
Ok, so what plane are you going to build to go around it? ;)

[Cyclone MkIII]

I think you are right about the belts.
I'll darken them a little.

Rafale B is my choice for the plane

Other then being a two seater is there a big difference between the Rafale B and M for the Navy?

Wow - gotta love the stiching on the leg-tension straps - that works really well visually! Excellent job on all the cloth!

Overall the texturing makes the seat look "Shiny new" - a bit too clean for real world, but the actual model is nicely detailed!

YAY!! STRAIGHT ON ABOUT THE RAFALE B!!!!!!!

I'm in the French Air Force, I fly a single seater Rafale B.


Back to the topic...

Great ejection seat! The detail is very amazing.

Rafale M has more powerful engines for taking off carriers. Rafale B is generally more heavily armed and can carry tactical nuke missiles. :D :D


The Charles de Gaulle is only a "mini carrier" by carrier standards. Her flight deck is quite short which requires all planes on her to have more powerful engines.

Meshfan,

You can not possibly be a Rafale pilot. I hope you're joking otherwise i'll drop dead jalous.

About scratches, I tought about it but was finaly lazy to unwrap again some UVs to put scratches on the edges.

My target is to model the Rafale with a detailed cockpit. I will continue my "Rafale Series" with the helmet Gallet LA100 that I've done some years ago as my first model.
