As secure airfields became available to the revolutionaries in Italy during May  1950, one of the units to move forward into battle was the 594th International Escadrille. Composed of mostly Italian born personnelle, the unit discarded the Internationalist black centre of its red stars for the green of the Italian flag before flying into their new home at Gioia del Colle.



On the 25th May, Combat Pilot Fabio Nesta flying in Black 05 shot down an Italian loyalist Meteor F.6 over Taranto while escorting Beasts on an attack mission.

VERY impressive cammo scheme. Nice job.
If you love, love without reservation; If you fight, fight without fear - THAT is the way of the warrior

If you go into battle knowing you will die, then you will live. If you go into battle hoping to live, then you will die

Well, someone's mighty talented with paint!

Did you handbrush paint this beautiful scheme or was it masked and airbrushed?

Great job-----must be a real stand-out on the ol' display shelf!   :wub:

Gorgeous! And interesting backstory...  :cheers:  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

I hand paint everything, slowly.

Don't ask me for the colours on this Yak-17, I forget. I

By the way, it's called a JSY becuase it's not a Stalinist USSR, but a Trotskyist one, so the naming conventions have to be different.

Thanks again for the positive comments.

Whatever.
