  Hellenic Air Force Day 2007 

 

Hello!  Have you ever seen a Greek Fiat G90?  No?  Well, that's right!!!  This model depicts the one and only Fiat G90 tested and flown by the Hellenic Air Force in the early 60's.  The actual plane even had Greek roundels painted on!!! Finally the G90 was not chosen by the H.A.F. but a model of the G90 in Hellenic colours was always a challenge to build.  The kit needed a lot of putty and sanding to come straight.  It was painted in the standard Italian camouflage scheme of that period with Humbrol enamels.  I also used Greek decals from "Plastimoelismo". No aftermarket products were used during the construction, since it was mainly built OOB.  I really hope you like it!
