James CLooking fantastic 👍
Oversized decals in 1/48 appears to be a common problem with Italeri aircraft kits in 1/48. Despite the printing quality (Cartograph) it appears that Italeri are incapable of accurately measuring them for fit before sending off to Cartograph for printing. I have encountered similar decal fit issues with their 1/48 F-14A, Mirage III, Mig 21, S-3 Viking etc. Given that most (if not all) of their kits released these days are reboxings of older tooled kits; having to replace the decals as well is just a no go for me and so I now avoid the brand completely.

bughunterAs you may know I love wooden propellers by I must admit that your propellers looks fantastic 👍

Ricardo Reis@James, I was not aware of this issue; I only started noticing when I started to apply the first decals and looking at the reference photos - there are 2 or 3 photos of this specific aircraft; now it's to late to go back, but I am alert for the future; @bughunter, I love this typo or propeller, like the ones we can see in the A400M, they are very beautiful and elegant and powerful at the same time!

Ben MI agree with the propeller lust. This kit is just the way I like it, nothing fits.

Anatolii SmyshliaievEver since I was a kid I wanted to have a good model of this elegant plane. I've assembled both NOVO/FROG and Special Hobby. Not the same. The Clear Prop model is a step higher.
P.S. I haven't quite figured out how to link the project to the model yet, sorry.

CuajeteFinally a good 1/72 plastic model of this aircraft. Looks like Clear Prop did a good job. I'm stuck with the Airfix one and the KP one doesn't seem to be a good representation.
Fantastic result. Very nice model.
Congrats!
I think to link a project to an album you have to create a new project (from projects --> add new project) and then link or create an album to the project

Anatolii SmyshliaievThank you.
I couldn't connect the project with the model, although I have the model in my stash. And the project with the album too. I'll figure it out.

Mr D1) Add it to stash from kits list,
2) Status= Started.
3) Go to Edit...scroll down to link project, Select the desired kit from list.
Should be all good then
Nice build 👍👍 nice shiny red, was this the plane that had X2 engine's inline??
26 September, 19:22
Anatolii SmyshliaievThe model from Clear Prop is definitely better than KP and all the others in terms of geometry, detailing and quality.
It is also possible to purchase an engine (DH.88 Engine (Clear Prop! CPA72141, 1:72)) and make an open hood. But this is already an amateur's choice
26 September, 19:30
Anatolii SmyshliaievThanks, I'll try it next time.
Engine according to Wikipedia 2 × de Havilland Gipsy Six R air-cooled six-cylinder inverted inline, 230 hp
