Hi Phil
Good to see that the MB-339A build is coming along well. You can really add alot of scale detail to this model if you wish, I look forward to seeing the model with some cockpit detail, also, should look great and with the Peru colour scheme and the new peru decal set, I expect this MB-339a to turn a few heads on the slope next season.
Now that I am slowly working my way through the order list for MB-339a kits, I have also put together a selection of other decal sets of various examples from air forces around the world.
Sets available at present for the MB-339a
Two display teams, the Frecce Tricolori and the new Golden Knights.
Two Italian training squardon sets are available.
The UAE desert colour scheme
This is an Australian training scheme for the MB-326, but can be used with the MB-339a
And of course the new Peru low viz and red roundel scheme.
The customer can request a particular scheme when ordering their kit.
I intend to add a few more schemes later next year.

So with just a week to go until the final 2013 PSSA Event on the Orme its been all hands on deck regarding the Macchi completion, a lot of late nights after a full days work in the office has got the airframe to this stage - complete ready for paint this weekend during daylight.
Ive added a bit of detail to the office - I had intended to fit the canopy before spraying but my chosen canopy adhesive takes 24 hrs to set hard and I ran out of time... it was essential I sprayed the model this weekend in good light - so all this stuff needs careful masking now and Ill add the canopy and paint that by hand later in the week...
Ive spent some time clearing the garage of all other models and converted it into a little home spray booth with some polythene sheets... and then the fun begins!!!
This is the base coat for the Peruvian AF scheme, a darker blue will be added later today - Im just having a break from the fumes as I upload this post now... :-)
JohnPearson:
Very nice work Phil, looking forward to getting a close look at the model over the weekend. The cockpit looks fantastic.
See you on Saturday

Thanks John, the model has gone together very well, Im pleased with the overall finish, just got to finish the paint job now - tonight Ive glued the canopy on firm, it takes a while to set, so its all taped and clamped... now we wait...
Will soon be adding the decals and bringing the model to life!!
