tchwrma Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Hi, friends. After a long time out, i'm back with this new kit. Is the long know Folgore from 21st Century, who besides appears like a toy, because some caracteristics, like the screws who close the kits covered by plugs, and the unusual plastic, who not be glued by the usual glues, only by CA. Despite these details, the kit has good fittings, and requires almost no putty.I filled the depth of the lines, riveted the kit, improved the cockpit and made some more scratch detail.From aftermarket, I only used the resin discharges made for the BF109.The painting was made with Tamiya acrylic, totally freehand.I found the nochiola chiaro 4 very dark, according to the references, so I brightened a little. Despite this, it was still too dark.The colors used were XF52 lightened with XF60, XF61 and XF25.The radio line is maded with Uschi Von der Rost Rig that thing. Comments are welcome, even the bad...

dennismcc Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 That is a real beauty, I do like the 21st Century kits having built their C205, Stuka and 109 (all in Italian markings), the paint finish is really neat, far better than I have managed in the past and the pilot figure really gives it something. So nothing bad from me neither. Cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
