Hello my friends
here it's a typical Cri.El Model's kit in scale 1/35. It's the italian tankette C.V. 33 or PzKv. C.V.35 731(i) (after german use). Here at the photo there are both C.V. 33 with Solothurn 20mm A/T gun and C.V. 35 Lanciafiamme (flame thrower).

as usual all Cri.El Model's kits are made in resin but in bad conditions....

the only way to aligned and put on the tracks is by the help of lighter flame and a hot air gun.....

first I made a limited preshadding using Gunze's Mud color; Then I sprayed Lifecolor's Giallo Mimetico (Mimetic Yellow) and finally I made some lines by Lifecolor's Verde Scuro (Dark Green)

All italians armoured vehicles had a great problem during 2nd W.W......the rust !!! Maybe because they used pins to connect the armor plaques ::) ::) So I made a pin wash by Raw Umber & Burnt Sienna meanwhile I painted the tracks by Gunze's Shoot

the only thing that missing is the wheel barrier and the rusted exhausts ;)
Panagiotis
Once again man,nice work :D !
With your projects, you are the King of the MK! Fantastic work and brutal good choice of models ;)
Panagiotis - are you using cocaine?
I'm just kidding, but - you have very good quantitative production of very qualitatively done models! Respect!
