    I decided to improve my mood after painting smoke clouds with masks on MC.205 "Veltro". So I rummaged out of the closet the model MC.202 "Fogore" in 1:48 also from Hasegawa. A model known for years, it will also immediately workshop. From the extras it is only the pilot's belts from EDUARD.

    Another model completed, so it's time to start another model. After the camouflage painting masks, this is the effect I expected. And I am not satisfied with the result obtained. There was a moment when I even felt like repainting it. And instead of wasting time repainting it, the "Veltro" stays as it is and I will make myself a "Folgore" in camouflage with smoke clouds painted by hand. Coming back to the model, the masks are "some" alternative it is a pity that the manufacturer scaled them down. They are simply too big and, in addition, have to be properly cut out taking into account the wings and stabilisers. But coming back the MC.205 "Veltro" is completed and depicts the machine used by II./JG 77, Luftwaffe, 1943.

    The last ship I built was ORP "Garland" from MM, and that was in 1986. At that time the ship was in a uniform gray paint job and here suddenly appeared the same version and in camouflage. And so something touched me, nostalgia as I saw in the display case of this already aged gray ORP "Garland" from my childhood days, that I decided to build it again and that is in camouflage. What and how it will come out of it we will see at the finish. And now the shipyard is moving.

    Just cosmetics more and you will be able to see "Veltro" in the gallery.

    Decals applied and pre-decals on the model are also already there. Slowly to the end, and the next ones are already waiting in the queue.

    Thanks that you like it, I like it less already. I painted using masks to see how it would come out. I had already built a "Veltro" once and it came out that way for me.

    Camouflage painting with masks completed, as it came out you can see in the photos. I, for one, am not entirely satisfied with the result obtained, and how do you see it? Hand-painted they come out very realistic, but it is also time-consuming to apply such camouflage.

    What should I write? The pictures show everything. The mask great but , well there is just a small but because it does not hold the scale. It's bigger than the model, I've been fiddling a bit with how to apply it and the best option is to cut the masks from the fuselage into several parts and apply them that way. I did so and the effect is below. An interesting addition.

    So the painting continues and there is a beautiful Italian camouflage left to do. I was already doing free-hand so I decided to change things up and used masks to paint the smoke clouds. Just out of curiosity how they would come out. I hesitated whether it was worth it and acquired such a kit from LF Models dedicated to Macchi MC.205Veltro Camouflage Painting Mask Model: M4811. And this is how it looks, we will see how it fits and how the camouflage will come out.

    Forgive me, but I scored a gaff, I did not take a picture of the camouflage from underneath. It escaped me. As a consolation, I upload a photo after masking.

    I made some small parts at the ready.
  12. Kriss
    The model is ready for painting, all the parts are in place and the undercarriage recesses are masked as well as the cabin. And this is the mazurka I did before laying down the color.

    "Veltro" is slowly taking shape, reliable LEGO bricks are always helpful.

    I enriched the interior of the cabin with some small details made by myself, as well as the pilot's belts. These accouterments are from the Eduard kit. I made the masks for the cabin glazing using Tamiya tape, and there are also masks on the inside. The cabin will be open. Thanks for the info, I know this site and use it.

    On the workshop landed such a small and quick project Mc.205 "Veltro" from Hasegawa in 1:48. The model almost straight out of the box, the rest will come out during construction. As the model has its years this is the start of its construction. Another Italian but in JG77 camouflage.

    After many years I finally managed to find all the parts and complete the model Fiat G.55 "Centauro" Sottoserie 0, MM 91064 "11", 1 Squadriglia "Gigi Tre Osei", 2 gruppo ANR, may 1944 in 1:48 scale published by Special Hobby, the machine is in experimental camouflage. Despite these several years of lying the model I do not remember that there were any problems with it in construction, the fit of parts very good. The only addition is montex-mask masks. Enjoy your viewing.

    I finally managed to finish it after several years of lying around. Yesterday I fitted all the parts and this is how it looks ready on the workshop, now it remains for me to do a photo shoot and upload it to the gallery. Markings painted with Montex-mask (MM 48280), dedicated to this kit.
  18. Kriss
    Having a moment of time I'll throw in a few more photos of painting the camouflage. And the "Centauro" is put together.

    Searching the resources of his laptop this I managed to find some pics of the construction, here the interior of the cabin. And the revised underside of the fuselage, the second photo from the old forum where I used to be.

    While doing some organizing in my modeling stash, I came across a model of a Fiat G.55 "Centauro" sottoserie 0 in 1:48 a published by Special Hobby. The construction of it began a good few years ago. But during some work in the workshop I lost some of the finished parts and couldn't find them, and the model flew to the shelf waiting for me to find the parts. Finally, I managed to complete all the parts and you can move with the end of its construction. In such a state he was waiting for the end of work on him. And here's a set of parts that I lost somewhere for several years.

    The model has been finished for a long time and it is also high time to take photos for the gallery and post them on the forum. I treated it as a typical rest and straight out of the box. It's just a pity that the extras for it are not available from Eduard. That's the way I would have gone over it a bit and pootled it. The model itself was very pleasant to build, well-fitted, the very pluses. By the way Italeri has just reissued it in their range, only the decal is for other camouflages. Gallery below, enjoy.

    Slowly to the end, it remains to install the engine cover and a few small details and it will be over.
  23. Kriss
    Work continues to move forward. I used kit decals, despite their years it laid out very nicely. They went into the recesses perfectly. Dirt came out somehow, too.
  24. Kriss
    Now it's time for the engine along with the cowl, still clean. Once it has been valorized and nailed down, it will be mounted and one side cowl will be loose. So that something will be visible from the side.

    Well, the fun of painting the camouflage is over, now putting everything together has been done. The best fun is over. Thanks for your kind words and the fact that you like my writings.
