1/32 PCM Macchi MC.200 - on the go...

Hi, my another Italian classic "on the bench". Still needs a lot of work - but I hope it will be ready in Januray. Happy modelling!

Nice work. Having built the PCM model, I know it can be a challenge.

Built this kit many years ago. You are doing a great job. You will be happy with the results as it is a fine model. Keep up the great work.

Pictures of my old friend A. Saccoccio should be inspiring at least, there is so much to do on tat poor kit.

That looks great, I'm building PCM kits at the moment, I've built 3 so far and am building an Re2005 at the moment, the next in line is the C200, so thi is a timely prod to get my finger out !

Cheers

I'll keep my fingers crossed :-) Actually I really like modelling those PCM kits. No as bad as people say. A lot of modellers are used to "TamiGawa" standards - but there is no need to be afraid of short runs. My next project will be Macchi 205 - I've examined the kit - and it's definitely buildable. It needs some corrections to the fuselage and landing gear - plus riveting of course - but I'm quite sure about the result.

Great job. I have built several of their kits and I think they are just fine.

Some details can be seen at very close distance - for the first time I tried to apply different wash colors for panel lines and rivets.

And quite contrary to popular beliefs Macchi Mc200 and Fiat G.50 are NOT similiar to each other ;-)
