Hallo friends,
Here is a 1/144 (Valom kits) Hanriot trio, dedicated to the Italian 78th Squadriglia.
I decided not to rig them because my thick fingers are too clumsy to manage the wires around the struts and the risk was to break things, so here they are, I know they're imperfect but I think all in all the overall effect is not that bad!
Here they are on the ground:

Thanks Cam...
I have all their collection, but they're too hard to build!!!
:-D

Thanks Haemon, Fucini's livery was made with a sponge brush (so they say...) I think WW2 planes had different shades, although I'm not an expert of that historical period... maybe I'm totally wrong! :-P

Those are some magnificent little gems!
It's a real treat to see your Italian W.W. I aircraft!
