Marchetti 88 (SIAI SF260M+ diorama)

The SIAI Marchetti SF260M+ is an italian trainer and light ground attack monoplane designed around 1964. I represented my own version from the belgian Red Devils Aerobatic Display Team that in 2019 celebrated the 50th anniversary (not 88!) [...]

1:50 Scale Truck Dock/Bay DioramaFinal Photos

Scrap Metal - Update 2

I've updated this dio by adding different shades of rust to break the monotone look of the junk in its entirety. I've also added steel rods as a load on top of the Suzuki. I've also added other smaller details here and there and add more [...]
