Jean,
Really nice attention to the needed corrections and additional details for a proper conversion to a Macchi 205 lll Serie SNR.

What stands out to viewer like me, who has little knowledge of Italian WW11 aircraft, is the truly outstanding paint scheme, detailing, and weathering. Simply a suburb model.
