It's great to see progress with this, Richard. I'm looking forward to seeing some paint.
Interesting information about the ailerons being used with the flaps and leading edge slats to change the camber of the wing for more lift. That's how I used to set up my RC sailplanes.

Re: Italeri 1/48 Fiat CR.42
Just finished this Hungarian Fiat CR-42 from April 1941. This one took a lot of painting, having to paint the entire Italian camo and Hungarian insignias, then over paint the yellow areas. I used the Montex painting masks and a variety of paints, mainly AK Interactive lacquers for the main colors an...

Re: Macchi C.202 1/48 Hasegawa
Thanks Mark. I used Testors and Model Masters enamels for the exterior colors, custom mix of brown, yellow, and white for the tan base color. The smoke rings are out-of-the-bottle olive green, but are a little too light in color. The gray was straight out of the bottle, too. The interior green is Ta...

Re: S.M. 79-II
That's a lot of detail in there. Even if your colors are not exactly correct, who would know? (Besides you and us)

Re: IMAM (Romeo) Ro57 bis
Quite an extensive modification! Opening the panels leads to a lot of work. At least you have good reference material.

Italeri 1/48 Fiat CR.42
Today I start posting my progress on my second Italian subject, the Fiat CR.42. I will be adding detail to this, as I really like the looks of this plane. It will be a Hungarian version. I have the Montex painting mask set (K48351), so this will be interesting. I started off with the cockpit, adding...

Next on the bench is the Italeri Fiat CR.42 - with upgrades, of course.
