I prefer Roberto, in stand of Sir, if you dont mind! 🙂
fantastic work
Shot #29 almost looks real! Beautiful work. You're a braver man than I, painting the lozenge on.
Just beautiful! Well done, and welcome to iModeler.
Excellent job, engine detail is superb.
Fantastic build and photographs, Roberto, and the background information is very interesting. Looking forward to seeing more of your work on iModeler. By the way, your English is perfectly understandable and that's all that matters!
Lovely work Roberto! great to have you with us - great photos also
Holy moly... THAT is some superb modeling. Fabric texture, fabric on frame effects, painted lozenge pattern, great framework, and, oh, yeah, pretty nice engine detailing. Your model can stand up against 1/32 WNW models any day. FWIW I am truly impressed.
