Nardi NF 305 della Regia Aeronautica

[Flyingbabydoc]

Dear all,

With all due respect, but most of the models here I do not consider micro, rather macro! I guess my idea of micro is this:

These are a few Zeros, Vals and Kates from the IJN Hiryu in 1/700. Not easy to get those bombs, torpedos and tanks in the little guys!

So my entry for the campaign is this little 1/72 guy here. Since I am in an Italian mood, I will be assembling the Nardi FN.305 from the Scuola de Caccia di Castiglione del Lago (Perugia Province) in 1943. The camouflage is C1A scheme, the model from Azur comes with a few resin items and PE.

Cheers

Hello everyone,

So I had a free weekend and was able to get some work done.

Here is some internal detail from Ali d'Italia Mini-Series Vol. 6.

This is what I was able to scrap-build based on the pictures. It is not a lot but again the plane was a rather simple one:

This is after painting. I will add the details later (dirty up a bit) but again I am pleased. For scale, our 1-Cent is the same size as your Penny.

Cheers

Alex
