Sorry for beiing to late to answer on a Regia Aeronautica theme

The Model is great, just great!!

For the records:The "CANT Z-1007 bis Alcione" was the primary (together with "Savoia Marchetti SM.79 Sparviero") bomber in the Italian Campaign in my country, Greece.

It always floors me when I see a camo scheme like that. What a great job. You know, it would make a nice tutorial feature, because I have no idea where to start on something like that. Something to keep in mind.

Beautiful model - congrats.

Cheers,
Mike

Another great build of you, Jean! These italian camos are really something special for us modellers, maybe that's one reason why I havn't started my Trumpeter 1:48 SM 79 yet. And as Louis presents us his great Sunderland in Malta diorama, these 2 aircrafts match perfectly togehter.

Happy modelling
Torsten
