Ready for the finishing touches, the wing is temporarily sitting on the airplane right now. Final assembly won't be for a while yet.

Because of other projects, these two were waiting for two weeks with finished Giallo Mimetico...
Late in the evening I've started Verde, but not too happy with the result - luckily, it's going to be easy to correct by adding some color to existing mottles...
Anyway, here they are for your comment, and I'll continue this evening...

Indeed, the Verde Mimetico have to be more consequent - But as you says, it's an easy correction to do and anyway, it's an excellent work! ;)

It looks very good to me, perhaps to darken the Verde on the upper right wing a tiny bit more.  :-love

One thing about Regia Aeronautica camouflage schemes is that there is a huge variation in pattern, sometimes even between different aircraft in the same unit.

Great to see your progress, Profa!

Everything was freehand painted, therefore no two planes alike, and I love it :-jump
@Scott: yep, upper right wing was the last part I've painted, exactly when I've noticed that mottles are too small and too apart - then I just decided to call it the day and correct it today...

Two in a row! Nice project. Like the camouflage patterns on fuselage and wings.

An update.....I finally decided to finish the paint scheme after flip-flopping :-think about the winter scheme for a couple of weeks:

Also, our "watchdog" doesn't like the vacuum cleaner and so she decided to take up the space under my junky workbench. This makes it rather hard to do any modeling! At least you can see the full cup of coffee so I had something to entertain me until she moved out..... :-paper
