Hello,
This is my little Macchi 205 released by Italeri few years ago.
Nice and cheap kit. With home made (I scratched the landing gear area) and photoeched parts (for the flaps and the canopy frame). Activators are also cutted and repositioned. Airbrushed rings and oil/inks weathering.
Cheers,

Beautiful work Nuno!

This one really deserves to be on the Frontpage as a Feature.

All the best

Beautiful work, the Italians designed a beautiful airplane that is for sure. Your replica really does the machine justice. You must have excellent airbrush control to apply that "smoke ring" camoflage. Just outstanding. Russell
