Question for OP:
What brand might be selling vacuum formed clear parts? Seems like you found some as seen in photo #11. I've seen some for airplane/jet canopies, but none for cars, so I wouldn't know where to look.

Hey Treehugger, the parts in the picture are part of the kit. But funny that you mention this topic because I actually dealt with this question myself recently. I finished two 964s earlier this year (Revell and Fujimi) and the clear parts in both kits were of very poor quality. Searched for aftermarket replacement and found nothing. So I decided to try myself at vacuforming and made the clear parts myself which turned out to be pretty decent (after countless tries and errors) I have not posted pictures of the builds yet but intend to, keep an eye open. You are right, there is definitely a lack of aftermarket windshields for cars...

Looks very good so far, looking forward to the end result. Very interesting to read your notes.

Looking 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.

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

@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!

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

Thanks Ekki. Hoping to get a black primer coat down soon. I'll be trying the marbling/black-basing technique for the first time.

Looking really good. I noticed that you painted the buttons in the cockpit individually. A technique that works well for me is drybrushing them as most are white/silver anyway, then to pic out some in the desired color.
Are you going to add ordnance? If I may add: I would flatten the wheels a bit to give it a more solid stand/feel.

Michael, thanks for the tip. I actually used that technique on my Revell P-51 (check my other albums for pictures). When the detail is crisp I prefer to paint the switches individually.
Its done. No ordinance…I wanted to do a slick Viper.

Very good build. The desert weathering is spot on. I like the canvas on the mantlet
