Andrea Manfroi Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Hello modellers, here you are my Fiat CR42. The model represent an aircraft of "412^ Squadriglia" based in Eritrea in 1940. This Italeri kit is not too bad, it goes together pretty well even if needs some special care to fit the upper wing. Model is 99% OOB with just few details added in the cockpit and on the engine. Paints used are Italeri acrylics applied with a 0.2 mm nozzle airbrush covered with a layer of matt Tamiya finish paint. Any comments or suggestion is more than welcome. Enjoy the pictures.

Its just dawned on me, East Africa too, my favourite threatre for these & one I hope to replicate in 1/72 some day. Steve. Edited December 9, 2016 by stevehnz added to.

WildeSau75 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 really nice build - I guess I could never get the camouflage of these Italian birds right. But you nailed it. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
