discussion Completed - Italeri 1/72 AMX Ghiblii

[gweller]

Some photos of my just completed AMX Ghibli. Hand painted with Vallejo acrylic paint and varnish with a wash done using Flory models weathering wash. Quite pleased with how it came was quite easy to build despite having quite a few fiddly antennas. etc

Thanks Tony! My mistake actually - It's an Italeri kit!! They make two AMX's - the Ghibli and the two seat version, the AMX-T. It's a nice kit, a bit fiddly in places, but being a new mold it's better than most Italeri re-issues.

Can you a moderator change the title of the post for me, renaming it as an Italeri kit?? Can't see how I can change that myself?

Just a couple more in front of the hanger....

Thanks! Not sure to be honest, who that is on the fin, the colours belong to the Italian 32 Stormo, Amendola in July 1997 I chose that scheme because I liked the shark teeth on the nose.
