Italeri 1/48 MB-326M/Impala Mk.I - SAAF 468 - WIP

Here's a quick build of a MB.326M/Impala Mk.I with the SAAF. The plane was locally constructed under license by Atlas in large numbers and was used in the tough battles in the South African Border war and in Angola in the 1970s and 1980s against insurgents and heavily armed Cuban forces. I used Stor...

Re: CANT Z.1007bis Bideriva - Kit Supermodel 10-006

The job you did on these canopies is incredible, your work is exemplary - its really on another level. I got an inquiry this week about the new Italeri 1/72 CANT Z.1007bis in their catalogue (see the link below), this is probably the Supermodel kit with PE. Do you know anything about this "new" Ital...

Re: C.205 Veltro colors

Marian, did you get my email responses for your order in Oct 2023?

I didn't want my reply to drag on like it did but the short answer to this post is that you're right, and also I should stress that Mark is a great modeler.

Re: C.202 wheel well covers

The main wheel covers were rarely removed and one might conclude from that there might have been a directive issued, however there was none - at least not to my knowledge. Unless you have a photo, I would leave the main wheel well covers on because as I mentioned the wheel well covers were infrequen...

Re: C.205 Veltro colors

I agree the model does not look right. On first glance I thought it was a C.202 in North Africa. The model is finished in what appears to be Giallo Mimetico 2 ( yellow ) with splotches of Verde Mimetico (the Serie Mimetica colors) and although early production C.202s were finished in the Serie Mimet...

Re: VIDEO: Xa MAS Lupo BN Gothic Line 1944

We once had a very good Amazon bookstore with a great collection of books on these subjects but Amazon no longer supports third-party stores. The best and only YouTube video I recommend on this subject is the video below. The author's accent sounds Eastern European. I don't know who the author/cc is...

If you get a chance you should read Ciano's Diary, below is a link to my notes - I didn't get a chance to write a proper article. Ciano's Diary 1937-1943 - Book review And read the unbridged version of the diary. It should be required reading for all students of History of this period, it doesn't ju...

Re: VIDEO: Xa MAS Lupo BN Gothic Line 1944

The photo (above in the YouTube video) of the Xa Mas Lupo Bn grenadier holding a Panzerfaust he used to destroy the Sherman behind him, grenades tucked into his pouch and belt and an M91 carbine slung around his back with camo pattern upper vest is striking - it would make a great poster. The truth ...

Re: CANT Z.1007bis Bideriva - Kit Supermodel 10-006

Keep in mind that this work is in 1/72. It's hard to do this kind of detail in 1/48 and 1/32, let alone on such a small scale. This is extraordinary skill and know-how that I hope Bruno is passing-on to the people around him, particularly the young people. We're lucky to have him share his passion w...

VIDEO: Xa MAS Lupo BN Gothic Line 1944

Here's an interesting video of XMas Lupo Bn on the Gothic line in 1944 by icunowlibra. It touches on the Canadian troops that were present there. I'm near the Mewata Armory in Calgary and often come across our young people who serve this country bravely. The other day I was chatting with one of our ...
