Italeri 1/32 Macchi MC.202 Folgore

Having to place the landing gear so early in the build makes for [...]
MV-22B Osprey (VMM-365) aboard USS Iwo Jima (LHD-7), Italeri 1/48 scale.
There are two ospreys in 1/48 scale the Hobbyboss and the Italeri, the hobbyboss is more expensive than italeri, the hobbyboss has a lot of options to build, the italeri is simpler but has a lot of fitting problems a lot of sanding to do, [...]
