Tbolt Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Nice choice. I haven’t seen those wheels before. What tread pattern have they got on them? I’ve been after some wheels with the common cross pattern tread on, rather than the diamond tread that every company seems to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierpaolo Posted July 8, 2018 Author Share Posted July 8, 2018 Hi! Italian Classic is a little company which was produced some resin set like wheels and conversions They have a diamond pattern 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierpaolo Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Hi In the latest days i've worked on the cowl/engine sub-assembly separately 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierpaolo Posted August 25, 2018 Author Share Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) Hi Same progress on the paintjob.. And the real thing ( from http://wing.chez-alice.fr/USAAF/405th_FG/Pilots_&_Nose_Arts_510th_FS.html ) in the picture I seem to see the right wheel with the wheel cover. could it be in neutral gray? Edited August 25, 2018 by Pierpaolo add a photo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbolt Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 (edited) Lovely work on the paint. It's hard to tell from that picture, but the wheel covers might be the same blue used on the cowl and canopy -Kansas Tornado II and Georgia Peach had blue covers with stars on.

Pierpaolo Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Thank You @Tbolt it's a great starting point! in the absence of certainties I think I'll do the wheel covers blue to add some color Today i did worked on the wings 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
