I did only a quick build of the cockpit interior because I saw that most of the difficult of this model would have been in the fit of the parts, originating from the 2002 Macchi 202 mould, and in the camouflage...
 

I preferred to improve the appearance of many external details such as the engine exhausts, the air intakes above and below the nose, the sand filter, the tail with the small wheel housing and the lower and upper bonnet, restoring the panel lines where necessary.  

 

 

At the moment I have joined the lower wing to which I had previously opened the cartridge cases of the Mauser wing guns, then I began to putty the joint before joining the two upper wings in the next few days.
