Nicely done! You should take some solo shots of that green and tan camo one for us!
Sure, I've got these two. I'll have to take some better pictures when I get a chance.
I based it on the card in flight of giants and made the cages from styrene and the insides of lighters. I may try it on the Ares ones some time as they look just right.

Those Capronis are very well done Ian.
I especially like the cage for your rear gunner and the cammo effect.

A very nice rendition Roland. I can see we are going to have some real competition when the next painting challenge comes along.

Some lovely Caproni's there chaps. Love the tri decker Ian.
The thread about these is here. It's quite a long ramble and would take up too much room as part of this thread!
Mmmmmm, pretty!
Some nice bomber repaints Alex and Dave.
Well folks, I just could not help myself. While not a repaint, this is a modification that I was compelled to do after all my work on Shapeways Be2c and Caudron G4. The Caproni looked incomplete. A few photos showed me the way to adding nacelle strut support not included. I used heated sprue extrusions and 32 gauge wire plus my very versatile Bandai 144 crewmen. Ah, now I feel better.
A great group of bombers . You all have done great work
Nice paint work!

Wonderful work, Craig!
This is the only Ares model I haven't been able to find. This one will be an upgrade - I'll send you my address
That's a great looking Caproni. Still haven't got one in my collection yet so may have to follow your lead and paint my own.
Super job, Craig!

I have restored your Gold membership manually.
Has that fixed it for you Tim?
PM Keith and see if he has got your membership renewal through O.K
