Wow! Looks brilliant, subtle weathering too. I was planning to build this livery one day, hope mine turns out as good! Did you do any work on the engine?

Do you have any progress pics? Would be most welcome in our 1980's contest

Very nice livery, are those stripes decals or paint? either way, it looks very realistic.
Don't know about the weathering on the back though, especially because the front is so spotless....

Well this is another project that is ongoing, it's the 1/20th scale Tamiya Fiat 131 Abarth with Studio 27 photo-etch detail set, here are a few pics









This is going to be painted in the Alitalia scheme:

I've been building this kit on and off for about 2 years, every now and again I'll dig it out and do some more work and then bury it once more.

Piękne! Po prostu piękne Bravo!!

Beautiful, simply beautiful - great job from Poland!

PS It's a shame "duzy fiat" never had one of those engines
