To ti to trvalo traktoristo nez jsi zmínil glocka. Nejdrif si honís triko pred vidlema z Kanady a Austrálie a pak uplne na konec, kdyz te vsici placaj po zadech, ho jen tak mezi psanim zminis.

Za chvilku te budou mit za meganarcise jako my z Praglu

Vince,

These eduard sets are for sale now on the web-site? I noticed a couple of different sets, Zoom etc?

Please help Vince/Jakub?

Does anyone know if the IWata HP-C Plus Air-brush is distributed to wholesalers in Australia? I havent' seen it on the market here at local hobby shops? It seems to be a nice air-brush judging by Jakub's work. This must be a duel action type? Can you recommend any others?

Do all the PE parts on Jakub's recent MC.205 build come from the eduard set you sell. I noticed the nice oil cooler detail! Do the sets for both the C.202 & C.205 cover all PE requirements on the Hasegawa kits. It seems that the only thing missing on Jakub's plane is the landing flaps? Jakub, did you use "ultracast" exhausts and wheels? Is it worth getting the ultracast seat?

Can you get a nice PE set of parts for the G.55?

Sorry for all the questions!

Regards
Antonio

I think, Iwata (Iwata-Medea) are really the best airbrushes what I ever had. I recomended 0,3 mm nozzle, because it is better for airbrushing of blotches and fine little details or soft camouflages. My HP-C Plus is fantastic airbrush.

Good choice is Infinity from Hareder - Steenbeck (it is probably Hanssa). This Infinity airbrush have two nozzles - 0,18 and 0,4. I think, it is good tool for our hobby

I bought my Iwatta HP-C Plus airbrush on e-bay Hong Kong (all new). I don´t know nothing about Australian shops, sorry. I am from Czech Republic

Australia is far away from my flat

I don´t want use flaps for my C.202 and C.205. I would like to build both Macchi´s completely closed and factory fresh look...
Exhausts in C.205 are original kit parts from Hasegawa and exhausts from C.202 are resin from Messerschmitt Bf 109 E

Hello,

There is a long time that I didn't come here, so, this C.202 is a very beautifull building

Congratulations for this work.

Cheers

I use an Iwata Micron C, its a professional airbrush. I also use a Badger 150 and 350. I'm not sure what's available in Australia. Good question about PE sets for a 1/48 Fiat G.55, I haven't yet seen anything.

There is a more than decent PE set in the Flying Machine kit, and there is also an interesting resin set from Italian kits. All combined the G-55 is giving back a relly great model.

Best,
