SIAI Marchetti out in 1/72
« on: February 19, 2008, 02:24:14 pm »
CMK Kits finally released resin kit of Marchetti SF-260 under their Planet Models brand. I have to say with nearly one year delay.
Don't have any info or pictures of it yet. There's no mention of it on CMK webpage either, so it's hard to say what decall options are included. Box art depicts all orange Italian machine.
It was advertised in latest Tamyia Model Magazine, so we'll see.

Resins require superglue, as far as I recall.

 :thumbsup: and lot of patience and - sometimes - a lot of filler.
I can imagine, that there will be some "how-to" on the web. Try to google it

Hi,
I bought examples of the 1/48 and 1/72 kits mentioned above.
Both are still in the 'to build' pile but on first observations the 1/72 kit looks very small indeed.
Hopefully decals for the 1/48 kit become available at some stage as this would appear the better of the two kits.
I will still of course build the 1/72 as I happen to have the old Maxdecals sheet to cover same
