My first kit: Italeri UH-1D Iroquois - 1:48
Ah, that's exactly what I've just done! I was just about to share it. I lightly refilled it and sanded it again. Now it looks and feels much smoother. Of course pictures without the paint.- Dozent

My first kit: Italeri UH-1D Iroquois - 1:48
I'll definitely remember this, thank you. Yours advice has been incredibly helpful, couldn't have gotten this far without it.. I believe I've managed to save it. Following your suggestions, it already appears much improved. Running my fingers over it, I still detect a slight irregularity, so I...- Dozent

My first kit: Italeri UH-1D Iroquois - 1:48
Hello everyone, Thank you all for the encouragement and advice you've provided. :D Despite my best attempts, the front refuses to glue together. I meticulously applied adhesive, pressed firmly with scotch tape, and allowed it to set overnight. However, upon removing the tape, it remains...- Dozent

My first kit: Italeri UH-1D Iroquois - 1:48
Great, thank you everyone for your help. I've decided to skip that part for now and continue as if it's seamlessly integrated. Haha, it's like it magically appeared! Anyway, I believe I've completed the interior. I admit, assembling the seating was a bit challenging for me, but I managed to get...- Dozent

My first kit: Italeri UH-1D Iroquois - 1:48
Alright, folks, here's the first picture. Hopefully, I didn't mess up too badly. You were right about painting — it was particularly challenging on flat surfaces. None of the brushes seemed to work well, and I had to repeat the same procedure three times. I'm not entirely sure if it's correct...- Dozent

My first kit: Italeri UH-1D Iroquois - 1:48
Hello, everyone. Well, here we go. As I mentioned earlier, this is my first model kit after, well, about 12 or more years. Back then, I used to buy those 1:72 scale models and just slap them together, leaving most of the parts on the sheets. No painting, no decal nothing haha. Disclaimer: Feel...- Dozent

Convert color code from Italeri to Tamiya
Hi everyone. I've noticed that the model shop downstairs stocks kits exclusively from Italeri, yet they carry Tamiya paints. The manuals shows only Italeri's colors for painting and I have no other reference. I stumbled upon this conversion table here, and I'm curious: Can I rely on this...- Dozent

Hello from Italy
Thank you! AND WHAT A COINCIDENCE. I live precisely 200 meters away from Viale Vaticano. Those walls you referred to mark the entrance. Oh and don't talk to me about parking. Last year I sold my car because it was impossible to wasting time looking for parking and being fined hahahaha.- Dozent

Hello everyone, I'm Matteo, hailing from Rome. I've joined this forum because, at the age of 28, I've realized it's time to reignite my passion for hobbies. My last model was built when I was only 16 and now with the gentle encouragement of my girlfriend I am embarking on a journey to explore...- Dozent
