Zigomar Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) Hello folks. One of my main interest is the Regia Aeronautica. The three tones camos are thrilling to do but they are also so pleasant. The MC202 from Hasegawa is a composite of a 202 and a 205 and requires some work to get to the proper rendition, there are now some very good books dealing with this plane and most of the modifications are easy to do even for a beginner. One plus is the recent Eduard wheel bay which save a lot of time and pain as Hasegawa did not do a good job on that part. The model shown here is one of the first serie, without the sand filter, no wing guns,no compensated tail surfaces and rudder. The camo is typical of Macchi with Verde Mimetico 2, blotches of Giallo Mimetico 4 and Brown blotches in Marrone Mimetico. Undersides are Grigio Mimetico, a rather dark shade. Plane is from the 97° Sq, 4° Stormo, the famous "Cavallino rampante". Best regards. Edited February 26, 2017 by Zigomar 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meatbox8 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 A brilliant rendition of the the Macchi. The paint finish is exceptionally good. Isn't this the 'fried egg' scheme? I've always thought the C.202 a very good looking aeroplane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doozer1974 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 The Folgore is one of my favourite types, and this is a lovely rendition. The wheel well detail is really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkippyNZ Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 That's awesome, and an inspiration. I have one of these on the shelf, maybe I should bring the construction forward. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
