Not my scale, but I didn't knew nothing about this jet. So very interesting, and I know it will be a great work. 👍

@Alexander G.: Yes, there were two flying prototypes. I only learned of its existence a few years ago, too.

@Thomas Ricci: It's slowly coming along. The decals are applied and next will be some really subtle weathering.

Today the Italian newspaper from December 1941 arrived that I had ordered on ebay. Just 15 EUR + shipping. Together with a postcard profile of the plane I'm now looking for a nice display idea (without cutting the newspaper in pieces).

Sehr aussergewöhnlich , für meinen persönlichen Geschmack aber zu wenig Farben und sonstige Details.
