| Hallo my friends,how are you? I'm back with a Breda 65...July 3 2009 at 2:00 PM |  Fabrizio (Login Naples57) HyperScale Forums from IP address 87.19.36.184 | |
| I'm happy to be here again. For months I didn't write on this forum, but be sure I opened it almost every day and enjoied yous posts. I must admit I passed trought a period of indolence and, as always in spring, I went into a kind of "aestivation" (word found on the dictionary: "summer dormancy". Do you use it???). In this period I like to spend my time outdoor.
More, I choose a demanding job: to build the AZmodel 1/72 Breda 65 A80.
I always loved this oddy plane, with its squared canopy and big fuselage. The model is perfectly moulded, with a wonderful surface detail and beautiful accessory. Nevertheless it's really a short run and need a lot of parts to be added from plastic rods and plasticards. The worst, for me, was the canopy in acetate: I hate them! I often left the model for days and days on the bench witout working on it.
But now it's over and I'm really happy to have it on my shelf.
I'd like to show you it with the Bay of Naples in the background, but we had a tropical wether in the last days: almost every afternoon a sorm of 1-2 hours and/or a grey sky. Sorry (dear Serge, I envy your garden  )
This plane is a Breda 65 with FIAT A80 engine of the 159 Squadriglia, based in varius fields in North Africa in 1940, at the beginning of the war.
The camo is a non standard (non standard was -is- standard, in Italy) Giallo Mimetico 1 and Verde M. 1, with Grigio M. undersides. I used Tamya and Lifecolor paints.
I hope you like it.
Thanks for you interest. Any comment welcomed.
Ciao
Fabrizio
