SAT69 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Outstanding model and a great setting. I can't believe how real the engine exhausts look. I'd swear they were metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epeeman Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Wonderful work on your Ansaldo, Mike - the quality of your Rigging is really noteworthy indeed. Interesting camo scheme as well - reminds me of modern digital camo. Regards Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Brantley Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Incredibly detailed and so realistic! (I love the engine pics up first! Good move! 👍) I'd say that you've "knocked this one out of the ballpark!". 😀 Great scale model Mike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
