Looks much nicer and "cleaner". That is a very good kit IMO. Good luck and see you in the finish line. Cheers Alex

Good luck John. As I mentioned in Dave's thread there are some neat "uniques" schemed for the F-51s, I really like the Latin American variants. Cheers Alex

Happy belated birthday Mark! I am happy you had a good time. Certainly you have made a lot of progress in you models. Are you really going for an An-225 kit? Probably 1/32 I guess... Good luck with your other biggies. I guess I could do an An-124 too. If it were 1:700! Cheers Alex

You are absolutely right. That is what has always fascinated me in Italian WWII planes. Such unique designs. What a shame they did not work properly (undermotorized, undergunned, small payloads) but still my favorites. Thanks for looking.

What he said. Outstanding, what an archeological restauration. Congratulations.

Very nice Dave! How about some latin american decals for that bird? Good luck I will be watching. Cheers!

Italeri kits are much better than Revell IMO. This is a new re-issue of a kit from the early 2000's which was a new mold. Very sharp and pleasant to assemble. I am a big fan of Italeri (national pride, I am an Italian citizen), and have many of them assembled/on stash. I would recommend!

Thanks a lot. Indeed it looked hump-backed but astoundingly the Saetta (Mc.200) had an amazing aerodynamic performance. Mario Castoldi (the Ingenieur) was a genius in that sense, the only problem was the shitty engine with only 850 Hp. He basically kept the same plane (200) and changed the...

Thanks a lot again! I am sorry I haven't replied sooner, as I said not easy. Thanks so much for remembering my birthday @Heavens Eagle! 2021 has been even more difficult than 2020, but at lease I am fully immunized now so I am hoping that I can continue working without so many risks. Thankfully...

Thanks Saul. These were part of another diorama a long time ago so that is why I did not mention. This is an ABM-42, an Italeri Kit from the 90's in 1/72. Figures are either CMK from the CZ Republic (www.cmkkits.com) or XO figures from the German train modelling company Märklin...

Einfach ausgezeichnet! Dein Spatzfalke sieht einfach wunderschön aus. Really you are outdoing yourself Paul. Your weathering in the landing gear ist exquisite. I am sorry I missed it so far. Will be watching closely. Cheers Alex

Very nice Terry. Fast and furious part XII. Looking forward to the completion. I really like Japanese warships. Cheers Alex

Goodness gracious Mark that is one hell of a factory. You must own a house just for your models. If I ever attempted to buy and assemble that An-124 I would be looking at a very expensive divorce. Good luck I will keep watching. Cheers Alex

Good luck. How about a nice Italian Starfighter? Although I guess those were F-104G... not sure. Cheers Alex

Wow x 10! That is really nice. Must be a huge model from what I gather from the pictures. Good luck, although you seem to have all well under control. Will be watching. Cheers Alex

Rob, I absolutely support this idea. There are so many subjects for a SCW campaign, either nationalists or republicans, Condor Legion, Italian Expeditionary Force, Partisans... I am in!

Thanks a lot guys. It was fun to paint. Still a bit rough, but at least not as thick as before. These Italian airplanes from WWII are delightful to paint and even more to train all these crazy cammos.

Hi there folks, In continuing with my Italian streak I will enter the campaign with a little gem, an Italeri 1/72 Fiat Cr.42 Falco. I am adding as much PE as I can, since I simply cannot live without PE anymore I am trying to assemble a "series" of kits representing the aircraft exposed at the...

I am in. A nice little Falcon (no, not the F-16. The original Fiat Cr.42)

Hello all, Again I hope you are all well and healthy. As I mentioned before little time on my hands but I was able to finish some small dioramas. The first one is a desert scene of a Macchi Mc. 200 from the 3° Gruppo in North-Africa. Kit AML with PE and Resin, Vallejo Acrylics. The...
