Using MM Interior Green for the main cockpit color, silver seat, side consoles are TD resin, Eduards PE for the belts and seat details, as well as console control panels located on either side of the cockpit.

Painting the smoker rings definitely will be fun to do. The decals may be a solution but they are quite pricey and an option I will leave open if I can't manage to get it down correctly.

Tonites entry will have the under Lt Blue Grey and Hazel airbrushed onto the airframe. Also for the heck of it tried my first attempt doing a smoke ring. Failed miserably and the green was way too light. Will practice some more on some scrap plastic. And will use enamel next time. Have done Luftwaffe camo's before which are similar in application. Just need to practice a little. More to follow.

Finally uploaded the final images of the Veltro project. Completed last year. A very nice and straight forward build from Hasegawa. The scheme was a bit of a challenge. Must've turn blue as I free handed the smoke rings with my Paasche H. Between clogs and just the right amount of pressure to get pretty much what I wanted to achieve. Overall a neat little Italian fighter in the right hands can hold it's own against any allied fighter of the time.
