Hi Kevin, Welcome to Stormo. Below is a photo of a group of planes at Cervetri, Roma 1943. The photo is likely the source of the subject in the Third Group decal sheet - see the plane closest to the camera, Red-2 (not Red-4). The problem with this photo is that the C.205V in the decal sheet is a C.2...

Ciao Mario, here's a photo of C.200 1a Serie 356-9 (with unusually high a/c number for CO), again Sant'Andrea's machine taken at Capodichino early 1941 with the Mago Bacu emblem, this time drawn differently (with red clothing, white (yellow?) cape and hat), there were various versions of Mago Bacu. ...

Here's a photo of Sant'Andrea's machine in April 1941 with the white fuselage band applied, the a/c code moved forward and the dark yellow nose band (60cm wide). The smoke cannister in the photo was used to determine wind direction for an easier lift-off. What kind of project are you working on? htt...

1) The CANT logo also appeared on the Z.506C (some), Z.509, Z.1011 and Z.1015 and likely on (some) civil and (almost all) military aircraft produced by CRDA after the Z.506. The upper part of the logo contained the script CANT, with the letter 'C' wrapping around the top-side of the oval forming a b...

Congratulations Richard! That's awesome. The CR.42 builds up to a large plane and looks impressive in 1/48, and especially in that scheme if done right. Nice job.

The age-old question of color matching and Tamiya colors. Paint lines come and go. Polly S and Polly Scale were (mostly) two different lines, Polly S (an older formula) was used primarily for trains/railroad modeling. I liked Polly Scale paints and I think this line still continues in Testors Acryli...

I haven't tried Techmod decals. Cartograf are really in a class of their own, they invest in R&D, they use the latest technology and equipment and it shows. They also have a very able staff - what others can't do they find a way and are very easy to work with, and most importantly they get that deta...
