What an assembly line!
These Caproni kits from Italeri and even before Italaeri fascinated me a lot when, as a young man, a few centuries ago😅, i admired them behind the window of my favorite modeling shop, thanks so much for sharing.
Good work!

Many thanks to you, serial builder !
This kind of work is the only way to have a good comparison between kits.

Finished in a very short time. It is a simple kit with almost no issues:
- the tank tracks and the wheels are one piece. In this scale it is ok. Noone wants to see rotating wheels in 1:76 😉 But in the instruction sheet (I think) it is wrong: The single wheel is in the front, but on the painting instructions and the picture of the real carrier it is on the rear side. So I did it this way.
- the driver figure is a man without legs. And I can find no place where legs could have been. 😉
- The carriage of the gun lets you make rotating wheels. I managed it to make them work, but it is unnessesary.
- the decals have wide transparent overlaps. But with gloss - decal - matt varnish that is almost invisible.
- For the first time I tried an airbrush for felt-pens to apply little stains of mudd and dust. It worked. Now it doesn't look fresh from production but a little bit used. In this scale models quick become "overweathered" - my opinion. In a diorama it would be ok.
I had fun building this tiny thing! 😄

Thank you Alberto and Joseph Russo! That motivates me to continue on the path. You will see the progress at the Caproni-project 😉

That's coming together well. It's kinda cool to see this done pretty much straight out of the box. I'm working on the same kit right now but I'm over thinking it. Be careful with the propeller. They made it backwards.

Dornier knew how to make seaplanes and this one is superb in its civil version.
Transparent parts can be improved with polishing pastes

Thank you. I will try this first. In case of failing I will try vac-forming it. If failing again I think I heard of third party canopies and will make a search.

Today I finished this car. I am happy how it looks and as I always say: My best model is the one I just finished. I learned a lot and the next one will be better.
hope you enjoyed the build and I want to say thank you for following and watching. 😄

Looking good so far, Chris.
The black ring you are referring to was painted on the test vehicles, SA-500, which both Revell and Airfix used as reference for their respective kits. If you're not accurately modelling a specific Saturn V, don't worry about it. As to your other curiosity, the real Saturn V was 363 feet (110.6 meters) tall and weighed an average of 6.3 million pounds (2.8 million kilograms) at takeoff, depending on the mission.

Thank you, Mike. That clarified a few things. As I do not want to build a specific Rocket, I agree and don't mind the painting. There are some things I learned during building, so I would have to build a second one, that woukd be more accurate. 😉
