Here are some photos of my last model: a 1/48 Hasegawa Macchi C.202 "Folgore". Excellent model by Hase, it was improved with an FM detail set, photo etched by Eduard, True Details tires and a some meters of copper wires and plasticard from Evergreen.  I like to tell you that the FM set resin quality is great.

The model was airbrushed with Tamiya acrilyc paints and the cockpit details was painted with Vallejo paints. My airbrush is one Harder & Steenbeck (supplied by my friend Antonio and his shop Pieza a Pieza, one of the best place to buy everything you need for your hobby in Spain), magic airbrush (imagine, I can use it !!!).

The problem was when my kid lost some decals, and I have to paint it by hand, as the little bee in the blue triangle. But, I like the result.

Try to do it. As I said, the kit is excellent. Finally, I like to dedicate this model to my good friend, Antonio Morant Bohorquez, who inspired me with his great and incredible Models.
