Kit : Italeri BR20?M "Cicongna"
Scale : 1/72

A kit that has been waiting years to build!She will be OOB with the most complicated part of the build being the paint which I think will end being hand after the sand is laid being 1/72 scale and the fuzz effect to me atleast is not really visible in this scale.

I always like how you bring something a little different to these builds Kevin. Very much looking forward to this one.

Well I got alittle done this evening after all the festivities of Thanksgiving and the 13 guest went home.The copit was really sparse so I made a couple of pieces ( ) to spruce it up abit .The pieces are figments of my imagination of what may had been there floor console,radio desk(wood) and the radio with PE attached.

 

[Capt. Vick]

I have got the engine in the wings and one wing all but about polished up along with propellers they will be a chrome and silver so they get the black first.The glass on this whole plane is thick and abit frosty with the fuselage glass having sink marks.I sanded out the sink marks as best I could polished and dipped.The rest of the glass got a polish compound,rinse and a dip(might be another polish in the works/dip).
