Robert Podkoński
Another brave man who tackles a RSmodel kit. Keep my fingers crossed for your perseverance... And I will follow with pleasure, of course 😉

Moreno Baruffini Author
Many thanks mates!!!!

@Robert:Yes...Today, I have been working on the two engine covers...Very bad slots...But I usually work on vintage kits, so I should be ready!

Moreno Baruffini Author
Well mates...I have to be sincere: although the instructions are a bit vague, part 34 is missing on the sprue and you have to sand almost every piece... I'm really ENJOYING this build: the kit is simply and the parts are well engraved, and I really like the line of this plane. I'll try to do a good job on the camo!

Robert Podkoński
The most important fact is that you are really enjoying this build, Moreno 😉 Keep calm and carry on!

Moreno Baruffini Author
Dear Robert, I just had funny moments trying to fix the wings to the fuselage...These kits really need brave men! 😉

Moreno Baruffini Author
Time to resume this project: in the past week I worked filling and sanding...Not finish yet!

Cuajete
Good hard-job 👍

Moreno Baruffini Author
Still working on this project! (Don't worry, I'll try to finish all the open projects).

A bit disappointed by the AK real colours: they are very difficult to manage - they dry very fast and tend to clogging my airbrush - and the RLM 63 seems to me too green...For sure I have to practise more

Живко Джаков
I have the same problems with Hataka. 🙂

Cuajete
Well done so far, Moreno 👍

Moreno Baruffini Author
Masking finished!
Waiting the retarder to arrive, and I'll start apply the colours for the camo

Nice work on a difficult project. Which retarder are you using? I used Ak paints on a tank because they came in conveniently premixed colors but I did find myself thinking I would have been better off mixing Tamiya and spraying. I did have problems with tip dry but I live in an extremely dry area.

Łukasz Gliński
Following. Having the same project in mind too.

Moreno Baruffini Author
Hi Ben, thanks! I'm using the AK real colours kit for Luftwaffe pre war camos, I also experienced tip dry... I'll try the AK retarder.
...Here in northern Italy the climate should be quite wet, but we are facing a lack of rain in the last months... Climate change 🙁

Thanks for the following Lukasz!

Moreno Baruffini Author
Thank you very much...Still on the shelf, but I have now everything to finish it 👍🏻

Cuajete
Looking so good so far, Moreno 👍.
Are you doing another Re.2001 from Supermodel?

Moreno Baruffini Author
Ciao Cuajete, no, it's an old picture with the Reggiane that I've already finished.
Now I have the complete set from Sword, but it will have to wait🙂

Cuajete
OK, Moreno. Remember that if you are not going to do the Sword one I will buy it for you 😉

Moreno Baruffini Author
Yes yes, don't worry, I remember well 🙂

Cuajete
Thx 👍 🙂

Moreno Baruffini Author
Dear mates, thanks to your interest, today I resumed this project.
I applied the green and the brown... Once dry, let's see how it worked! 🙂

Cuajete
I want to see the result 🙂 👍

Riho Sakrits
Nice work, lets go dude!

Moreno Baruffini Author
Thank you, mates!!!!
By the way, the day after I applied the camo, LF models launches the camouflage paint maks for the exact aircraft I'm doing...
Heinkel He 112B-0 Spain (LF Models M72112, 1:72)

🙂

Cuajete
Murphy's Law, Moreno 😅

Moreno Baruffini Author
Here we are, all in all a good result with a home made masking, some flaws to be corrected.
Quite happy with the general result!

Cuajete
The end is closer 👍

Moreno Baruffini Author
Yes! Today I worked a bit on the missing patches.
Anyway, still some work to do on the canopy, etc...

Ben M
Looks like great progress!

Marcin Dudek
Watching 👀. Looks very promising so far.

Moreno Baruffini Author
Thank you, gentlemen! I'm still working on the canopy and on some details, hope to start "decaling" in the following days!

Moreno Baruffini Author
Thank you Lt.!!!!
...And sorry, still no news, I've started a secret project 😉 but the He will return soon on the bench!

Cuajete
Moreno, we'll be here when you come back 👍

Moreno Baruffini Author
Back on the bench ☺️

You can find below why I didn't work on this model for a while 🙂

Cuajete
I'm glad you come back, Moreno 👍
