Hey Paul I am impressed with the detail and the clarity of your explanations. Thanks for providing such a good seminar, I have learned a lot from reading this post. Amazing. Cheers Alex

Beautiful Job as usual Master Luiz, nicely done. Tudo bem ai com voces? Espero que tenham ficado com saúde esse tempo. Grande abraco, Alex

Some more progress on the little Fiat Cr. 32. It is a shame that the PE remains so hidden. At least there is also PE on the outside. wishing you all a good weekend, Cheers Alex

Thanks Gary and Mark. Indeed I use a very, very thin layer of paint. I guess the augmentation is such, that it still looks blobbed. I will try to thin it even more for the next endeavours. Cheers Alex

Hello everyone, As I had mentioned in that terrific thread on the Junkers Ju-87G2 by @paddy I was planing on building the Italian version of the Stuka, in this case a B1 version which was used against Malta from bases in Sicily in 1940. Since the Italian aircraft industry was not able to come...

Hey friends, Thanks for the nice comments. I am sorry I have not been posting lately. I always have these "phases" in which there is simply no bench time. I hope these next few weeks will be a little quieter and that I can get some work done. In any case, the PE arrived and I have finally...

Same here. I missed it. What a wonderful job, love the car and the settings. Espero que esteja tudo bem ai meu amigo, e que vocês tenham escapado dessa praga toda aí no Brasil sem problemas maiores. Estou já há quase dois anos sem voltar para casa, simplesmente nao dá. Como está a vacinacao...

@Barney : That is a good one. I have been doing some research and I found that either these trucks retained (like the airplanes) their desert camouflage or were painted in an incospicuous green similar to verde oliva scuro. Other sources show a different pattern but not in Russia. I guess I will...

Oh Mark, please don't take it as an offense. As usual I am tasting my foot... Sorry, I did not mean that. What I meant is that there is usually little detail to assemble in normal 1/72 kits, so I like the challenge of adding a lot more to the building experience and enjoying the process for a...

You are absolutely right. I do have one of those on stash. What I am talking about is this one here. I have the conversion from Italiankits.com and will use on a normal Sparviero. Just need to get the other projects done first.

Well, without PE it does look kinda boring, don't you think? :peacesign2: Not much progress here but I did get some two new things to go with the diorama. You know I am not one for AFV but I think these two will do nicely. I just have to find some info on the painting that was used by the Regio...

Now that is a real beauty! Congratulations. Very inspiring. Cheers Alex

Very nice project Chris. I do have one on stash (of course 1/72) but I intend to build it as the Brazlian Navy Skyhawk - still in use although the aircraft carrier has been scrapped! Looking forward to your finish. Cheers Alex

Very good looking, very sharp, although very British... Should compare with the Italian racers of the time... Great Job master! Cheers Alex

That is a mean looking 262. I love the matt finish. Good job. Alex

Thanks a lot dear friends (yes I mean also you dave... :)) Unfortunately I have not yet received the PE for the CR.32 and I think it does make a huge difference in the model, so I will be waiting for that. In the meantime here is some progress on the little Falco. Assembly and Painting are...

@helios: you are so right Chris. Even with the magnifying glasses I don't see as much smudging and imperfections as with the camera. I completely agree with you - I am certainly here to learn from all of you, and I am very thankful for that. Besides, it can only get better right? Cheers Alex

@Duke Maddog: Mark, it is amazing how you always have a conforting word, an incentive, a good advice and a positive thing to say. I want you to know that I really appreciate it. Thanks!

Thanks guys. I know it looks very dirty with all the resin and glue and plastic and primer... I promise it will look nicer in the future, or I will die trying. Cheers Alex

That is an amazing Build! Congratulations! A bit of weathering and it could have been a picture of the real thing. Cheers Alex
