SPAD VII, Italian Aces - Fulco Ruffo di Calabria, Special Hobby, 1/48
« on: April 13, 2016, 05:50:22 PM »
Hello,
Frankly I have not found picture with this particular skull marking. Indeed you can find in Osprey little modified skull (3D) on Fulco Spad, which comes to the conclusion that this one must have been sort of transitional marking. Nevertheless here you have Italian SPAD VII from special Hobby with as much PE as possible :D

Really nice job K. Your subtle weathering and shading are very effective and the rigging really stands out. One to be really proud of! 8)

She turned out beautifully, K!  I enjoyed following your progress on this one, in particular your use of the Part PE set.  It really added a lot to the kit.  Your weathering is superb.
Cheers,
Bud

Having tried (and failed) to build this particular kit I can appreciate what went into finishing this.
 To have done it so beautifully makes it all the more special.
Congratulations,
Tony.
