Re: Airbrushes, Paint, and smoke rings

If I ever get around to doing one of my 1/72 kits, I'll be using these Mike Grant decals.

Re: Special Hobby Reggiane Re.2000 Serie I 1/48 dissapointment

Damn! That's rough.

I wish I could help in some way, but all I've got are an old Supermodel kit, an Italeri kit and a Special Hobby kit, all in 1/72 scale.

Re: Reggiane Re.2002 Ariete

Looking pretty good. But you've put the main wheels on wrong way around. They should be on the outboard side of the legs.

Hi, Bernard

Though they are a bit small when viewed on my computer monitor, I can see your pictures.

Re: Fiat BR 20 colors

Good luck on your build, Bernard. Even though this is an old kit, first released by Supermodel back in the 70's, Italeri's release is quite good. I don't think Italeri re-did the molds on this one like they did with their SM-81, but I think it will built up well. When I did my Supermodel kit back in...

Re: to be or not to be ...

I am more interested in the aviation aspect, but then I've done that all my life. An early childhood memory is of a large low-flying passing over our small farm yard in Nova Scotia.
