I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

The tail wheel, the arial mast, the exhausts are finished and the canopy is masked.

The gunsight and a decal from the spares box adds a little to an otherwise rather sparse interior.

Adding a gunsight above the instrument panel.

I couldn't resist adding a bit of a sest and some seat harness.

The wings elevator, rudder, spinner and canopy have been masking taped into position for trial fits. So farn so good.

The tissue has been added and three coats of dope have been applied.

Here's a link to the Wikipedia article on the Bloch 150 to 152 series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloch_MB.150 It looks as though it may be difficult to find references with French markings. I'll look through my references and see if I can find anything.

Thanks bsadonkill, I will try try it, now I got to find some decals to fit, I would rather not use German markings to picture a captured a/c if I can find some French markings.

You can make copies of your patterns on a copy machine. Then to transfer, place the copy face down on the wood.Use dope thinner to dampen a rag.Rub the damp rag on the back side of the copy.The dope thinner will melt the toner and transfer it to the wood.Don't get the rag too wet your transfer's will be runny.I used this methed when i built my Diels o-47, theirs a picture of the sheet i did transfers on next to the fuselege.Try it, it works.

HELP!I purchased the plans for a 1/24th scale Bloch 152 that there is no kit for. The plans have drawings of all the parts. Can anyone give me a tip on how you transfer the printed parts on to balsa sheets to make printwood so I can cut out the parts and build it.

Fitting the componet parts together before tissue it is starting to look a lot like a Hurricane.

I added a little detail to ome parts. The exhaust stacks are kit parts with plastic tubing in stead of straws.The under belly radiator is detailed with plastic screen and a bit of plastic tubing. The seat is balsa with a plastic sheet back. to the spinnerI added a disc of balsa for strength.
jerry campbell, Image # 1920310 Sep 10 00:19

I filled the nose with balsa.
jerry campbell, Image # 1920210 Sep 10 00:16

I added wood to the wing leading edges for both strength and as a base for attaching tissue, as well as looking better.
jerry campbell, Image # 1920110 Sep 10 00:13

I usually block in the wing tips which not only look better but are easier for papering.
jerry campbell, Image # 1920010 Sep 10 00:10

Seperating the rudder was easily done.

Construction on the building plans sheet was straight forward.
