This Had a Few Problems! Mistercraft Dewoitine D.520 Model Kit in 1/72 Scale - Build & Review

The Dewoitine D.520 was one of the most succesful fighter aircraft developed by France during the late 1930's. Entering service at the start of the Second World War it would see some victories against invading forces and being a close match for fighter aircraft from other countries.

The type would see service as a captured aircraft or in Vichy French use, with some still being used as trainer aircraft into the early 1950's.

Join me on the workbench for this special "French February" edition, where I build and review the Mistercraft Dewoitine D.520 C1 plastic model kit in 1/72 scale - a kit that was "new" but is probably not as recent as Mistercraft makes it out to be.

🇫🇷 For more information on "French February" and how you can get involved with your own builds, check out ‪@MsModeller‬ for more information!

This build is a bit of a challenge and some issues were found during the construction of this kit. As mentioned I did purchase the Printscale decal and camouflage mask set for this kit (PSM 72015) which sadly also put up a bit of a fight.

📹 This Mistercraft kit features the spelling of Devoitine D-521 C1 on the box, and an item code of D-216. For a deeper look inside the box of this kit, focusing on the sprues, decals and instructions, check out the unboxing video here:    • Not as "New" as Mistercraft Thinks? Dewoit...
