I haven't yet gotten round to it but plan to order the whole of the series (or those I'm able to obtain). The Close up Shows the drawings are by the same Artist who did much of the Ali d'Italia drawings (possibly the same, anyway ?). A reason more to get on with ordering. I feel some Italian moments coming up... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thinned it with IPA and a drop of Windex, I believe @davmarx had suggested that - it works! ... Glad I was able helping you, Giorgio. Nice job painting the PE. Ciao.

giemme Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 Hi everybody; not much modelling last WE, as i went to the dentist on Saturday and that knocked me out for the day I did manage to do something on Sunday, though: C205 IP parts received a Dark Gull grey drybrush: Then everything was assembled and is now at the same point as the C202 IP: I also airbrushed the cockpit floors, sidewalls and seats with Lifecolor Grigio Azzurro Chiaro (both C202 and C205): Now I'm ready for some detail painting Should be fun! Any comments welcome Ciao 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles87 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 For ' not much modelling ' that's more than I usually manage in a day, and the IP is looking particularly good. Hope your visit to the dentist wasn't too painful, I'm going tomorrow (broken tooth ) but I think the visit will be hijacked by SWMBO who has a loose molar which is giving her some pain.

K Thanks John and Keith The hardest part of dental trouble is now over, and pulling a wisdom tooth was an "interesting" experience ... the dentist used tools that I would have never classified as dental tools More some sort of heavy duty carpentry I hope to be able to do some detail painting on the cockpits during this week, and do something more substantial (like joining the fuselage halves?) during Easter WE ...

Spookytooth Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 What did he use Giemme, a lump hammer and a set of mole grips? Nice steady work on the office mate. Looking forward to the next update. Simon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking very nice and I hope the dentist wasn't all 'touchy-feely...' There luckily is a pretty evident difference in the tail wheel bay area to prevent such a thing As for the dentist, I think he gave me a horse size anesthetic shot, so I didn't "feel" anything while there, but when the effect ended ...

giemme Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Hi everybody, Holy Friday update Two hours of modelling last night spent playing with fiddly little PE parts for the IPs. C202: and C205 I've also primed them but not painted yet. I also glued the two PE parts for the cockpit rear bulkhead, here's the C205 one, the other is absolutely identical: Hoping to get more done during the WE, although there might be food and wine crossing the way .... Happy Easter everybody! Ciao 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
