One of my favourite warplanes - I have exactly the same kit on my "to do" list. Fantastic work! Deserves more photos!

Grande modello! Ogni modellista Italiano dovrebbe avere almeno un Folgore nella sua collezione.

Grazie a tutti! come ho detto prima pubblicherò altre foto questo weekend, poiché il mio cellulare fa foto abbastanza penose quindi dovrò rubare l'Iphone di mia madre XD. Il modello presenta qualche sbavatura qua e la ma ne sono comunque felice, non posso definirmi un modellista italiano senza un folgore sul curriculum!

Aggiornamento, non sono riuscito a fare altre foto decenti nel weekend, quindi temo che dovrò usare il mio telefono penoso per le foto aggiuntive 😉 arriveranno prossimamente.

Thank you everyone! I should clarify that i've used camouflage decals to paint the smoke rigs, that's why they're so neat!

I plan to follow the same method with respect to this very model - how did you manage to "hide" the decals' carrier film so perfectly, Alessandro?

Hey robert, the truth is i used some lighting trickery to hide the carrier film, but otherwise it's not too noticeable. Part of the reason is that the eduard decals go down really extremely well and were lovely to work with. I also sprayed a satin coat under and over them to make them uniform with the surface. If the carrier fils still shows through you can try to very lightly sand them with a fine sanding sponge after the previous steps and finish off with another clear coat and it should all be perfect!
