"Dai Banana!" "Go for it, Banana!" Aermacchi C 202 flown by Maresciallo Ennio Tarantola. September 1942 - From Italeri kit in 1/32

[al49]

Hello everybody! When Italeri released their new 1/32 kit decicate to MC 202, I purchased it almost immediately and in Ocrober 2023 I started this project and I continue it until my attention was captured by the EFA2000 Typhoon.
I progressed something in April 2024 and, eventually, last December I thought it was the right time to finish my model.
So, let show some pictures of the w.i.p. I hope you will like them.

Really nice Alberto

Painted upper surfaces with "Nocciola chiaro" (FS30219) and "Grigio mimetico" (FS36293) on lower surfaces. Plus a 3D detailing kit made by a small Italian shop called Accurate Eagle that offers very nice hub and propeller.

Then, in December 2024, I started applying camuflage smoke rings supplied by Italeri as a decal sheet.
This solution is the oly one for me, because my hand isn't steady enough to spray on smoke rings free hand.

 

[fubar57]

Love those smoke rings. Used them on my 205

That is a beautiful build Alberto and much better detailed than the build you helped me with.

Nice work. Looks like parts from an actual airplane.
