Hi all,
This is my humble tribute to the men who flew and fought on SM84.
The model is a 1 / 72 resin kit of Italian Wings, with decals and Tauromodel Sky models

Hello Gabriele,
Very nice work. I'm curious, I have never seen a grey and white stripe on the fuselage of an SM84. Was that for the sun glare or just the unit's decoration?
Thanks,
Vincent.

Hi Vincent
thank you . The smears of gray on white stripe was applied to some warplanes of Gruppi aerosiluranti in order to reduce the visibility of the same white stripe. If you want I may tell you the publications where you can find pictures of these aircraft, if I remember correctly are some recent numbers of CMPR bulletin
:wink:
