Vincent, Thank you very much for your research into this matter; I really appreciate it. So to summarise: if I wanted to show the SM81 in appropriate markings for an aircraft operating over Malta, then using the Skydecals sheet mentioned (I don't have it yet) would be the way to go - using the marki...

Hello everyone, it's been a year or two since I've posted on the site, but now I have a question for you. I'm considering entering a group build on another site, the subject of which is Malta 1940-1942. I have Supermodel's SM81 - as I am sure you RA experts know, there are two sets of markings provi...

That is a HUNDRED times better. You are a life saver - many thanks indeed.

That would be very kind of you.

Hello, I have recently purchased this model (the "Foreign services" version with Hungarian/German/Austrian/Chinese decal options). I have noted the excellent builds here by Messrs Barby, Busbridge, Tassone and Splendore; I hope mine will eventually look as good. My first humble request: does anybody...

Great build, Jose! Lovely camo!

I think we can be justifiably proud of the jobs we both did on this nice little aircraft.

How did you find the fit of the undercarriage struts? I had to replace mine with thick wire, as I couldn't get the kit parts into the correct positions.

Very interesting! Once again - a lovely build - great paint job.

Lovely build there!

Is there any history about that particular plane?

Thanks Jose.

I don't expect I'll ever get my builds as professional-looking as Jean Barby's, but I was pleased with my modest effort.

I want to thank Jose Lucero for the decals which I got this morning. (Thanks to Davide as well, although I did not need his decals in the end). Well here are pictures of the completed Nardi - it may not be as impressive as the others posted on this site, but I am happy with it. http://i253.photobuck...

Look forward to seeing it. I'll wait until the last decals arrive before I post mine.

I am very tempted.

Unfortuantely I have no other Italian planes in my stash at the moment (I have a very small stash). However, I must say the Italians went to war with style! They have some of the sleekest aircraft and creative colour schemes of WW2. There is a group build on another site for Interwar Years, and I wo...

Yes, of course!

I'll post a couple of pics when she's finally done (which is very soon).

It's not quite as good as that - obviously - but I'm very proud of it nevertheless, as it's my first Italian camo job.

Thanks, I'll try it!
