Scale? I went to the site… I am caught up in the Italian colonial between the wars endevours in 28mm. Absolutely inspiring. Thanks, R.

Great paint job !

Wow!

I've been building 1/35 models of Italian and Polish tankettes since the '80s, but that paint job puts mine to shame. Excellent chipped and faded paint effect.

As for wargaming, I'm slowly building up my 15mm Italian and Polish forces, both of which include tankettes. I want to use them for early WWII "what if" battles in an imaginary Polish colony located between French Tunisia and Algeria and Italian Libya.

I have a 1/56th scale CV33 on my desk right now, looks tiny, most people probably assume it's 1/72nd scale.

Apparently in Ethiopia the locals used to nip around behind the Cv-33s and tip them up on their sides!!

British troops discovered that a standard Lee Enfield's .303 could penetrate the sides at close range.
