Dears modellers After hundred sandpaper foils the model lies under a coat of Future: it seems like a toy...flat without life... Next step: decals and wheathering with oils... By Mauro

Thanks guys... I'll share with you my next w.i.p. I must use all the pieces of this kit. In Italy the contest category "straight from the box" accepts only aircraft built with "original pieces" and no other... Bona Mauro

Nice kit ( Edu 1/32). Far for the stress of scracht... OOB. I've added a very few details. No aftermkt: in the box thare are two p.e. frets, nice and complete decals, and for lazy modellers, also the masks for canopy !!!... Engine, in plastic, is at tha state of art. No Aires or other ...Thanks God... 35 euros for a gorgeous kit... Bona Mauro

Thanks a lot dear colleagues... I love this aircraft, famous in Italy and still flying in our skies only two years ago !!!.... Muscle fighter and ready for take-off in a handful of minutes... Our EFA is another history and I'm working to Revell kit in 1/48. We nick them: "Spillone" (Big Pin) and "Albero di Natale" (XMas tree) for their shapes in flying trim... Bona. Mauro

Oh my dear modellers... The kit is Hase 1/48 A touch of resin Aires in the cockpit. Gunze colors (mix). Decals Duebobbi (Two Bobs in your premises)... Ciao. Mauro A Photograph of the real...( only for modelling sharing)

Ciao dear modellers... This is my last work. Bronze winner at last European contest in Thiene ( Italy). I hope you like it... Bona Mauro

Oh Gil Italeri canopy has a slight relief to represent det-cord...clean of course... I've tried with a brush but you must be a robot to be precise. After many efforts i clean everything and use a 0,1 china-ink pen: two passages with firm hand...when you wrong tha way a gentle erasing with a subtle brush and water permits you to correct the work. It's not a very fast method but the result is not too bad... Ciao MAF

Oh Ken... I have'nt yet finished the work...Italeri made a mistake about fairing wheels well... I have to correct the right positions of them. After I'll glue the canopy in position and post new photos of finished release. After all...a nice kit..very easy to build, nice detailed which permit to me in experimenting new technics in brushing gloss colors... Joking in words is the title of a song of my favourite, forever, band: pain it, black... But...my black is not black... And tomorrow, maybe in my workbench a very very gloss 1:24 car...!!!... A dream of course...I'm just preparing for Telford: a very strict contest and the time for modelling for me is a couple of hours robbed to Morfeo. Ciao

Stunning work oh Tim... Ciao

Great work... NMF perfect. What do you use for the lines of the panels: oil, ink, ...?...or other... I'never released a Mustang...perhaps the reason is a lot of resin and p.e. lib. that are lying, togheter the gorgeous Tamy kit, in my cellar... Bona

Ciao dear modellers, I submit to you my last release: 1/48 and OOB... Tamiya construction is a complete relax... I, usually, build an easy kit avoiding stress/shortrun and difficult scracht...for them I spent many and many months... I've found decals for Lt. Knight who was k.i.a. near my house in Italy...Honour to him... Cheers Mauro
