Kriss Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 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. Alain Gadbois, Model_Monkey, LSP_Kevin and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 That's always been my favorite Italian paint scheme. Pasta, pesto, and wine. Look forward to seeing this one completed Matt Alain Gadbois and Kriss 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 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. denders, tucohoward, scvrobeson and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriss Posted November 30, 2022 Author Share Posted November 30, 2022 Having a moment of time I'll throw in a few more photos of painting the camouflage. And the "Centauro" is put together. denders, coogrfan, tucohoward and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 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. tucohoward, LSP_Kevin, denders and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriss Posted December 5, 2022 Author Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) 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. Edited December 18, 2022 by Kriss coogrfan, tucohoward, Phantom2 and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Turned out really well, such an unusual camouflage, even now. Kriss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
