Hi all something like ten days ago i decided to build an OOB kit and I’ve chosen an Italeri M24 “Chaffee”. I put it together, I starting to paint it then I’ve been (as usual) bitten by the “detailing bug” so I started adding a few PE and a lot of scratchbuilt stuff.
Now I’m going to paint it, but I’d like if you guys can give me further ideas/input/comments/critics before picking up the airbrush…
Thanks a lot in advance
Wow, Fabio! You’ve put a ton of great detail on that M24! The .50 cal really looks good, too.
The only thing I can see that you might want to check out is the PE fender brace on the right rear fender. In your close-up picture of that area, it appears that the PE is pulling up or is not seated firmly on the fender, and you can see some glue in the gap.
Other than that, it looks great so far!
Looking forward to seeing the finished model. How are you going to finish it? US? Japanese? Italian?
Looking great Fabio. Brian pointed out tht only thing that I saw. That .50 cal does look awesome. Should finish up real nicely.
Thanks for your kind words guys!!!
I didn’t noticed the gap you mentioned. It will be finished with the markings of the Genova Cavalleria (4th) Regiment of the Italian Cavalry.
Very nice, Fabio
I’ll be looking for the finished product.
As always a pleasure to see your work Fabio.
Haven’t heard from you in a bit, where have you been hiding?
Paint away my friend, she looks great !!!
Ciao Robert!!! I’ve been where you should know… It’s not easy to follow too many Forums at the same time…
Nice detailing Fabio. It should look awesome when finished.

as everyone else has said it looks great
what tracks have you used they look great
Fabio, it looks gorgeous. Great work. Looking forward to seeing it completed, but glad I could see the work you put into it first!

First of all thanks everybody for the kind words. So far only J-Hulk noticed something needing a fix. Is it so good?
Captain Caveman: the tracks are juest the ones coming with the kit…
Very nice Fabio, Are you going to add the windshield for the driver?

Nice would be an understatement. It is great so far.
Cmon paint it and post pics.
looks good, especially the .50 cal.
Thanks once more for your nice words and comments.
mark956: No, we did not use it on our tanks…
Great job Scoccia,
Gotta be careful of that “detail bug” - it can surface at all the wrong times
Ten days ago??? That would take me ten weeks to finish as you have it! Nice, very Nice!
