Aesthete Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) My gesture of self-sacrifice for the modelling community - finished just in time Sword and then RS Models released their state-of-the-art Sagittario kits. Well, at least I wasn't then spoilt for choice and yes, I still managed to use a few Pavla parts (however, modified)...

jer Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 That's a beautiful build and finish, super rendition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Fabulous build, really enhancing the elegance of this Italian thoroughbred! Maybe you don't need to post 26 (count'em!) photos of your finished masterpiece to bring that fact caross, though… ;-) Not everyone has DSL or fibre Internet connection. Classy work!

Aesthete Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 Thanks a lot to everyone for positive feedback. Fabulous build, really enhancing the elegance of this Italian thoroughbred! Maybe you don't need to post 26 (count'em!) photos of your finished masterpiece to bring that fact caross, though… ;-) Not everyone has DSL or fibre Internet connection. Classy work! Kind regards, Joachim I was desperately trying to create a table with thumbnails, however, for some reason the standard BBCode tags for table weren't working correctly. If someone could help with correct code accepted by this forum, TIA for a PM and I'll try it in my next post. Nice! What paints (and colors) did you use? TIA. Testors Model Master enamels 2112 for Verde Oliva Scuro 2 and 2113 for Grigio Azzurro Chiaro 1. The final clear coat was done with Future+Tamiya Flat Base (with some variations in proportion for slightly uneven effect) and the weathering with the wet pastel technique. Some inaccurate kit decals were replaced by markings from the Sky Models sheet 72-008 "Caccia Reggiane". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
