1/32 Pacific Coast Fiat G55 COMPLETED

[jandrego]

First project in months.

This is not an easy kit, but with some effort it really looks good.

And you have some colourful marking options.

 

Decals are on and the first weathering with the airbrush is done.

Also a protective coat of Tamiya clear is on.

 

Now the rest of the weathering.

Looking good, the PCM kits are always a challenge but you end up with a very unique subject that Tamiya etc would never do.

Looking forward to seeing this finished.

That's a absolutely hideous airplane, but I'm going to have to grab one some day so I can do that scheme.

 

This is some really excellent work and I can't wait to see more of it.

Both of your models look great!  This was a first class aircraft which could take on anything the Allies had. It is also so typically Italian gorgeous!  Nice work!

same camo/marking schemes, yet two different finishes and both beautiful renderings.  Doogs' your G55 was one of the most enjoyable WIP's I have ever followed.  It's great how a build can be a supply of angst yet in the end turn out so rewarding. 

 

the lines of this aircraft are just elegant.  agreed Ken, in the hands of a good pilot the G55 was a very worthy opponent.  I believe Kurt Tank evaluated and gave the G55 good performance marks.

Both are equally fantastic ! Jan, the weathering underneath is gorgeous and I'm looking forward to seeing the next stage. Doogs, well, as always .... Sweet.

"so typically Italian gorgeous!"

Ken ,

I couldn't agree more my friend. Any chance of PCM marketing any more Italian types in 1/32 scale?
