Popular Post Fuad Posted March 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2017 Good day, gentlemen. The painting was made “on motives”. It is difficult to see the scheme of the original drawing. Some kind of gibberish. The prototype belonged to Italy's long-range bomber squadron. This plane did not become successful. Many were non-combat casualties. And among the fighting was the death of son of Benito Mussolini - Bruno. As a result, this squadron began to bear his name. A set of typical shortrun. Many details were made by myself. 75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbudde Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Like the P-108 very much. Lovely paint job on the alwyas dificult to paint italian schemes. Looks great with that glass nose. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no live shooter. The 12.7 mm twin machine guns were controlled from those tiny glass towers in the fuselage. The efficiency was extremely low.

Head in the clouds. Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 That is a mind boggling paint scheme and you have pulled it off to perfection and a wonderful build taboot. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_W Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Lovely model. Did the designer not get the memo about using three engines? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Gruntfuttock Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Goodness me Fuad, that is stunning - you are a master of these difficult schemes. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis_C Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Magnificent work on a beautiful airplane (perhaps the most beautiful 4-engined bomber of wwii)!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombernut Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Fabulous work Fuad! I don't think it's the most beautiful 4 engine bomber of WWII as Chris asserts, but each to their own. It is certainly distinctive and the paint job is excellent. Yet another finished model to inspire my own efforts - maybe I'll get round to mine in about 125 years....

Brandy Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 That is definitely a very strange looking aircraft, but as usual, a beautifully executed model. Very, very, nice! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clive_t Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 That's some superb work there. I now have this plane on my wish list, although I can't see me getting even close to this quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildeSau75 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Top notch build of a rarely seen plane. That paint scheme isn't really easy but you nailed it. How was that plane doing? Don't know much about it. Where saw it action ? Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do a photoreport of the assembly. As there is no desire(. But I can tell the short story). This set belongs to the "shortrun" category. Therefore, there is nothing easy in it - all the details need to be adjusted, some are replaced or added. The building took me about 60 hours.
