I'm doing this a bit backwards by submitting the finished model first to the gallery and then doing the BLOG. I assume this will appear on TL6 when it is up.
I actually started the kit back in the late 1980s. It has sat in a box started for about 20 years. I finally started finishing this kit back in 1999. What really got it getting finished was the purchase of the Model Victoria update that I bought after I built the Model Victoria Topolino.
So here goes, a BLOG on the Italaerei Semovente. |

| Interior Parts | Jul 6, 2008 |
| I tried looking to see if I had any photos in progress prior to using the Model Victoria set but to no avail. I started this project about 1987. I know this because it was prior to buying my home. It sat around in a box until 1999 when I put it on my 'priority' list. What really got it going was purchasing the Model Victoria set in 2004. I was so impressed with their Topolino that I purchased the update. If you want the ultimate Semovente, it is well worth purchasing. This photo shows the interior parts painted and weathered. All the parts are of resin. Detail is suburb. I did add some interior rivets and bracing to the Italaerei lower hull. The rivets were made using the Historex hexagonal punch & die set. |
