The model is now completed! Hope you enjoy it. Here are the pictures of the Motozattera in its base. The next model would be the italian submarine x2 or the destroyer Tigre. See you soon!

Some upgrades...

This is the Safe boat completed and the "bridge" /

Oh, yes, Zathros they remained in service until the '80 in various roles, whilst more of these survivors were from the second series and were completely rebuilt (mostly with a closed bridge for the crew). This is the main gun and the Scotti 20mm finished:

Well, I use Blender, Sketchup and an old version of 3dsmax... depend of what I need to do: I'm not good at any of this program and I use the easiest tool of all them... then I spent lots of time converting files from one to another. This is the hull nearly completed:

Thanks, the Italian Navy is a little neglected by modelers... hope to fill the gap. These are the pictures of the hull structure

Foreseeing the invasion of Malta, the Regia Marina found itself without landing ships, so it ordered to the Italian shipyards the light ML class (15 tons displacement, only 9 built) and the more heavy Bette MZ, based on the German "Marinefährprahm (MFP-A)". The Regia Marina ordered 100 of them...

And the two ship comparison.

Thank you Zathros! Now, even the Papa is completed.

Some more pictures....

Finally, the La Masa is completed, a couple of days and the Papa will follow! Here a some pictures showing the raillings, and the ship finished.

Thank you Zathros! Time to upload the progress on the Papa now:

I'm working mainly on the La Masa now, even if the Papa is not very far behind. These are the masts finished.

I was very busy during the last months... But now I'm back. This is the La Masa and the life boats nearly completed.

I'm spending all my holidays studying for the italian teacher exam (on the first round 68.000 of 321.000 passed)... a little sign of the economic crisis in Italy. Yet, I had some little time for my models. Here are the paravenes... not very useful, since most of these ship were sank by mines.
