MC 202 decal options in 1/32?

[Mikester]

I picked up a 21st CT MC 202 on ebay. Although I'm tempted to do the smoke ring version ("Pai Banana") the version I'd really like to do is the "poached egg" camo. Is there anything at all availabel in the way of aftermarket decals for the 202?

I don't know of any such decals Mike (though there probably are some), but if you change your mind, the decals in the 21st C kit are excellent - some of the best kit decals I've ever used (printed by Microscale I believe).

Here's a link to my build:

Doh!

 

Either the kit instructions were not real clear on that scheme or I'm kind of slow on the uptake (probably the latter). Thanks!

The kit instructions are wrong. There is a better build of that plane on line somewhere, I've tried finding it without any joy, the plane no doubt had the "poached egg" scheme all over, but suffered a crash landing which resulted in it having grey replacement panels fitted to the wingroot as here http://www.hyperscale.com/galleries/2001/macchic202gp_1.htm though maybe just to the port side of the fuselage, and another not depicted on the model, just forward of the vertical of the cross, again probably just on the port side, this profile shows the rear replacement panel http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww2/f/920/32/3/33 and if you are interested in correcting the undersized wheels http://www.network54.com/Forum/149674/message/1276873356/My+new+1-32+scale+detail+sets+for+Macchi+fighters

Kev,

 

Thanks for the link, that's a great looking build! I'm looking to do something similar, do some upgrades without going overboard. I've heard that a set of 1/72 wheels for a Wellington work well for the main wheels and I was also thinking of adding some Quickboost exhausts for a 109E. Maybe a little scratch building in the cockpit and call it good!
