Fiat G.50B Bicomando- 1/32 - Special hobby 32083 - Regia aéronautica.

[jimvit]

A new project nearing completion.

An SH kit, an extrapolation of the G-50 Freccia from the same brand.

I added wheels and a resin figure, tubing, wires, and complete riveting.

This was a development aircraft, of which only 108 were built, and only one complete, unrestored example remains, housed in the Belgrade museum.

Vallejo painting.

A pretty good model, but it's a hobby-specific kit, isn't it?

 

 

Italie 1941

 

Thanks for watching

Thanks, Jean-Marc, for always thinking outside the box and introducing us to so many beautiful and lesser-known aircraft.

Those blotches are masterfully painted.

Your paintwork is so precise and consistent, which makes it incredibly difficult to pull off well.

Nothing but respect for this gorgeous model, I absolutely love it!

Merci, Jean-Marc, de toujours sortir des sentiers battus et de nous faire découvrir tant d'avions magnifiques et méconnus.

Ces taches sont peintes avec une maîtrise exceptionnelle.

Votre travail de peinture est tellement précis et uniforme que c'est incroyablement difficile à réussir.

Que du respect pour ce magnifique modèle, je l'adore !

 

 

Thank you, my friend Denis, for your kind words and appreciation.

SH is well-deserved

Beautifully done - I like that!

Lovely rendition, and I had no idea there was a G.50 still in existence, pity it's not been restored...

Superbe interprétation ! J'ignorais totalement qu'une G.50 existait encore, dommage qu'elle n'ait pas été restaurée... 

 

Thank you, gentlemen, for your kind comments.

Originality is always a gift. And increasingly valuable. Nice plane and nice model.

 

Italian manufacturers are another great forgotten name in model making. The Italians produced some truly beautiful and innovative models for their time, including some impressive bombers.

 

There is a CR-32 here in Spain, and the collection of Italian racing seaplanes is a spectacle of elegance and beauty that in my opinion has not been equaled in that type of aircraft.

 

This photographer has put together a very good collection; https://www.flickr.com/photos/classic_aviation/8489331416/in/photostream/

What a delightful build. Didn't know there was a two seat version of the G.50

L'originalité est toujours un don. Et de plus en plus précieux. Bel avion et belle maquette.

 

Les fabricants italiens constituent un autre grand nom oublié du modélisme. Les Italiens ont produit des modèles d'une grande beauté et d'une grande innovation pour leur époque, notamment d'impressionnants bombardiers.

 

Il y a un CR-32 ici en Espagne, et la collection d'hydravions de course italiens est un spectacle d'élégance et de beauté qui, à mon avis, n'a jamais été égalé dans ce type d'appareil.

 

Ce photographe a constitué une très belle collection ;  https://www.flickr.com/photos/classic_aviation/8489331416/in/photostream/

Quelle superbe réalisation ! Je ne savais pas qu'il existait une version biplace du G.50.

Great paint work!

May I post it on the website?

As others have already said, great work with the camouflage that makes those Italian aircraft of the time so interesting.

 

Cheers
