I like the CR42 too, italian schemes aren't easy to do and yours is great.
I'm a 1/72 builder

But I've also some 1/48 in my stash.

Nice paint job....

I love building model aircraft of all eras, but I don't have paint knowledge or experience. So I would build em, and eventually thrown in a box and then away. Now days I just buy the expertly done Blue Box ones and hang them in the man cave. Where do you put your finished ones?

I started this F-16 cockpit a year ago and put it away. Maybe I'll finish it this year. The painting is more to my ability level.

It was also my intention to back light it with LEDs

I'm thinking of doing another model ( did a lot as a kid) but would like some options as to a good size( 1/32 ?) and make as in Airfix-Revelle. Any advice .....
