This is my latest kit and I found it to have the standard Italeri quality. Black soft plastic, poor quality interiors, good decals and so on.
I started to buid the U-2R "Senior Span" improving the cockpit and the seat. I added some seat belts, handles, cushions, sticks and so on. - Thanks to an ARC modeller for the cockpit photos! - Some "Remove before flight" tags are been added, too. Apart the cockpit all the kit is been built OOB. Some parts received "tons" of putty/filler. As regards the paintings, a medium grey was used as primer, a coat of matt black as second cote and some light passes of blue and gray in order to highlight all details.
I spent about 30 hours to
complete the model. Maurizio Bressan
