Neat! I do like the Fiat G-50, and it would sure be nice to see some Italian aircraft get done in diecast.(Kingfisher looks pretty cool too.)

Ed, if you painted that bomber, you did a fantastic job on the pattern. How do you get yourself prepared for a paint job like that?

Thanks, Ara. Yes, I painted the Cant. When I do any of these planes, I make it a point to look at as many pictures as possible, with special attention to color hues and markings. I have a fairly extensive library of books, including those about less popular air arms like the Soviets, Italians, Romanians, Finns, and, of course, the Japanese. I also had the foresight to amass a huge collection of decals, including many out of the ordinary subjects, which affords me the flexibility to try almost any plane and scheme.

Very methodical and painstaking. Good going. Those books of your make for great reading. I have a few titles on the G.50 and it's fascinating.

I'll second Ara1's comments.
