Italeri BR 20 "Cicogna" 1/72

[ffrbel]

Hello,

I have started with the building of the Italeri BR 20 "Cicogna" 1/72 kit. So far I have built the interior of this plane. The only difficult thing here is the separation of the steering wheels from the sprue. Nearly broke one. Other pieces glued together are for the tail assembly.

Yea Nev - I'm really interested in how this builds as it does fit in with the type of things I like to work with, and I've one to build myself.

thatd look sooo good in (dare i say it!) Finnish Air Force markings either on a standard Italian mottle scheme as per the Fiats or in Green/Black camouflage!!?

looking good..

Well I was going to do mine in Japanese camoflage as per the real ones but put it in Manchuko markings.

Might get another one now (it's out again) to take up your Finnish idea - look good alongside a Blenheim ?

Hello,

I've continued with the construction of the kit. Wings where glued together. I've added the interior bits to the fuselage. This time I left he clear glazing out. The complete nose, in clear plastic, was also glued together. They will be filled in after painting. I haven't seen gaps in the parts that I glued together.

I have already made one but this was years ago. I then finished it in Japanese markings. From what i remember it fitted without producing a gap. That's one on of the reasons that I like to build the (older) Italeri models. (There's always one that doesn't go together well and in my case this was a italeri Blackhawk.).
