snipalex Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Good Day Me 323 D-1 Gigant 1/72(Italery 0104 ).My old dream to make this monster. It's old kit from 90s,was taken from E-bay. Kit (on my mind) content like from 2 different makers.On side perfect fabric structure on the wings,guns,wheels,engine,canopy,cargo space On another side completely empty cockpit,terrible part jointing,aileron with huge pulling-down and etc.Tons of Mr Surfacer was spent))). Camo for Tunisia operation:RLM 70,71,65 and 79 spots on top - I'm not find confirmation about this camo scheme,but can be). Normal camo 70/71/65 for Me 323 and I think during Africa operation can be added 79 spots in field. Construction - aaaaaa,nightmare - putty,polishing,putty,polishing and again and again. Painting - one thing after two layers of paint fabric structure disapear,I'm cry.Aileron levers,intake air pipes selfmade. Weathering - washes,pastels. Finito))) 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
