Kriss Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Hello! This is my first gallery in this forum. To the MC.205 Veltro 1:48 Italeria I added a few additives in the form of resins and plates. I also used paints dedicated to Italian aviation from bilmodels company, so far these are the best paints I have had a chance to work with. As always with valorization, not everything fits perfectly, there were a few places where I had to think a little bit how to put it together. In summary, the construction went smoothly. Below are pictures of the finished model. Maybe somebody will like my sweats. And a couple of construction photos: 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Brantley Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 That's just brilliant and what an introduction! As said, the camo paint work looks sensational, as does the PE work; please take a bow for that beautifully done cockpit as well.

S. Uehlinger Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Fantastic Work! I have the same "Smoke Ring" pattern on my old Frog Macchi 202 - but I cheated - used Decals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giemme Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Beautiful job, Kriss KUDOS for the airbrushed smoke rings Ciao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fubar57 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Very nice Kriss. I built the Italeri re-boxed kit and the original Hasegawa kit at the same time and had more trouble with the Hasegawa fit. I cheated and used Italeri’s smoke ring decals Edited January 1, 2021 by fubar57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Keg Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 This is why the Italian AF had some of the smartest and most attractive camouflage schemes of WWII. Excellent results and your attention to detail is first rate. This is certainly one to be proud of. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriss Posted January 6, 2021 Author Share Posted January 6, 2021 Hello! Thanks for the kind words and that you liked my work, this is my first model on the BR forum. My next job here will be my next. Currently I use H&S Infiniti airbrush, for painting I used Italian aviation paint from Bilmodel. Exhaust flanks painted with an airbrush in matching colors, black, brown, white and what I had at hand. I made the rest of the stains with pigments, bought in the artists' shop.
