Now I got it. I am a bit slow, not enough brain power left on the hard drive... I don't think that the camo looks Italian at all, in the 30's Italians were either using the Ivory White (bianco avorio) or a very light blue on all their planes. The mottled and squiggly camos started only in the...

It will be. Wait until you see all that is going into those 3 little buggers. I am excited about this project!

Ain't that the truth... unfortunately

As far as I know this is a whole american aircraft from the Granville Brothers (thus Gee Bee) in MA. There were quite a few Italian designs in the 30's with the cockpit blending on the rudder but I thinks this is an all American aircraft. Caproni Ca-125 Breda Ba.33 Caproni "STIPA"...

That is a very nice model. Looking forward to it.

Hello again, Since I am back on the modelling mojo, I decided to start working on a long project of mine - a diorama of North Korean MiG-15 with lots (and I really mean it) of extras like flaps, cockpits and in one of them the whole engine with a dismounted fuselage. However, to ease back into...

And as for the little bug, here is the progress with some painting on:

Thank you my dear friends If it was deserved or not I do not know, but it was hell necessary - I was demoted here in Ulm with no reason (at least none was told me) in exchange for a chap way less qualified than me and who has proven to be a complete A...hole (sorry Bob). That meant a pay cut...

Thanks a lot Bob After a very extensive and tiring selection process I was unanimously selected as the new chairman of the departments of pediatric surgery and orthopedics and Professor of pediatric surgery at the University of Regensburg, in Bavaria. It is a huge responsibility and a very...

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well! Again my appologies for being absent from the forum for so long. New job, moving cities, tremendously more work and responsibilities and unfortunately very little time for modelling. However, I could not miss the MMM 24, this is always my favorite...

I am so glad to hear that. I hope she gets the last 2% back soon. Fingers crossed and all the best.

I Just saw it Paul, amazing! What a build, and what an aircraft. Italian design is always so futuristic. YOu did an excellent job, congrats. Not worth the oxygen molecules I wasted trying to get it to fit. I just realized that the glue must have come off when I took the pictures and the canopy...

Thank you dear Paul. I appreciate your words as always. There are indeed a few Bredas in resin and Vacuform. In polystyrene there were only the kits from AZ Model and more recently from Special Hobby, which are quite difficult to find. https://www.scalemates.com/de/topics/topic.php?id=846 I...

Good job Gary :dude:

This is a really nice job, great detail. I have never tried this model although I have one in 1/72 of course. Will look forward to your completion of this model. Congratulations. Cheers Alex

Just coming back after another hiatus. How's the wife Bob? I hope she has recovered well. My best to you two. Cheers Alex

It is an excellent work Greg I love the details of the machine guns and all removable panels. Great work! Cheers Alex

Another stunning model. I admire your ability in tackling such huge models. Looks IMHO even better than the Spitfire. Congratulations.

@jknaus Thanks a lot old friend, very kind of you. Indeed, it is so strangely neat, which is why I like the model so much (this is my 3rd). I don't think there is one in 1/32 but pretty sure in 1/48 if you want to try. Otherwise check out the new Macchi Mc. 202 from Italeri in 1/32 - seems to be...

Hello dear friends, After another involuntary hiatus I am happy to show you my latest, a limited edition Breda Ba.65 from AZ Model, with resin and PE parts direct from the manufacturer. Not an easy build, you have to do some modifications to get everything to fit. I added the 50-pound...
