Post by: Phil Portway on 20 November 2016, 01:20:21 PM

The first of two I am making, will probably repaint over the yellow cowling.(http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn208/1815philip/WWII%20Italians/DSC06079_zpsefxc4e78.jpg) (http://s305.photobucket.com/user/1815philip/media/WWII%20Italians/DSC06079_zpsefxc4e78.jpg.html)

Nice painting - I like the yellow. And I've also rediscovered the joys of 1/72 Italeri kits this year. Look forward to seeing the other one.

Well done.  I've always found aircraft to be an interesting break from AFVs.

Does anyone know what the Italian air force roundel represents?

Very nice, the cowling is striking.

The fasces, the symbol used by the Fascist government in Italy pre-WWII and during most of it.

Bonjour Phil,

Really excellent.

I remember that one of them appears in a Rapid Fire scenario!

Not made one but inspired to do so.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Paul

Thanks chaps

Bonjour Paul

It appears in the first rule set, scenario section. The Battle of Gallabat with the Italians held up in an old for and a village

Great game actually. We have played it a few times.

Just finishing the second one. Can see a Barce scenario coming up.

Finished number 2. I have had to paint serial numbers and tail fin flag on plane on right, by hand. Could not find any decals on web.
