Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
Witam! To mój pierwszy post na tym forum i powiem szczerze przymierzałem się do niego od pewnego czasu, ale teraz przejdźmy już do modelu. Oto pierwszy model jaki wylądował na moim warsztacie, pierwszy, bo w tak dużej jak dla mnie skali 1:32. A bohaterem, który wylądował na warsztacie jest Fiat CR.42 „Falco” w wspomnianej już skali 1:32 z firmy ICM a sam model ma nr. Kat. 32020. Model znany więc pominę zawartość pudełka. Przy budowie modelu wykorzystam następujące dodatki:
Eduard 33979
Eduard 33271 seatbelts
Yahu models YMA3267 instrument panel
CMK 5141 main wheels

Welcome to Stormo and I look forward to this build, Bogdan just finished the same kit. Enjoy the forum.
Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
Thanks for the welcome to the forum.
The introduction has been made so it is time to show that something is going on with the model. After putting it to the plans this "Falco" fits perfectly, but it lacks riveting and I have to mark some dividing lines and also some flaps. Some of the riveting and marking out I did on the fuselage before making the interior, it's just easier for me.

Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
I have enriched the interior of the cabin with plates from EDUARD, the only problem was the position of the step in the cabin because the manual does not specify its exact location. I have helped myself with some documentation including photos found on the net and I have assembled the left panel with the floor and in this way I have placed the step on the left side.
Cabin interior parts waiting for processing.
And partially glued parts waiting for primer.

I laid the primer and then continued the work. I wanted to make natural looking exposition marks in the cockpit, so I painted the places where there would be bruises and scuffs in the same color as the primer and then applied a coat of hairspray and then the base color for the interior. I used the hairspray so that the base color could be easily used to make paint chips on used surfaces.

Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
So far so good. I took a little bit different aproach building very early machine with moderate use marks. I painted the cockpit gray and just drybrushed some elements with red-browm primer color. This is what makes this hobby great - so many ways to achieve satysfying final result. So carry on
Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
I am struggling further with the Fiat. There are tinted pilot stripes in the EDUADR kit, which I have to inpaint myself on the reverse side. So that the bare sheet metal doesn't shine on me after shaping. The seat cushion, on the other hand, is a bit more fun, as I had to glue it with a piece of plastic to the correct scale thickness and then, as with the seat belts, also retouch it with the correct colour. Such a small detail, but how pleasing.

Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
The cockpit fittings continue. After the belts, the time has come for the clocks and here I have, in addition to the company kit, a plate from EDUARD and a kit from YAHU Models. I chose the YAHU kit to which I added a little bit of EDUARD. I am now putting everything together.

Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
The Yahu PE set is nice.
Re: Fiat CR.42 „Falco” 1:32 ICM
The work on the cabin was almost finished, I added the missing linkages and wires. With the clocks I made the base from YAHU and added some parts from EDUARD sheet metal. I also made the viewfinder glass. Now it's just a matter of closing up the fuselage and continuing with the construction.
ps. I know of cool boards from YAHU and as soon as it is on offer I will always put it there in the model.
