Hi Luciano,

Nice planes.

I figured the FW was small, the P-51 looked 1/72, but I thought your Irving was Tamiya's Good weathering!

Luciano,
the detail painting on the Nakajima is outstanding!

are you sure you havent just bought a really big pen :-) thats awesome work in that scale, i get told some of my 1/72 looks like 1/48 in pics and i thought the focke wulf was the revell 72 version i have.
and no worries about display space either!

Hi Luciano!

Awesome job in such tiny scale! Do you have a mini-airbrush as well?

Thanks for your kind words.

These were all painted by brush 3/0 and 5/0 except the Mustang which had the silver done with glossey Alu from a spray can. paints used were Tamiya, Lifecolour and Aeromaster, all acrylic.

Thanks for looking - I should have two more for you all next week

Ciao
Luciano
