Agusta-Bell AB 205 - "Arma dei Carabinieri" (Italeri 1/48)

My first model kit ever build and attempt of a diorama/vignette.
I remember this helicopter flying everyday over my village when I was a kid. Thanks to her I have fall in love with those strange and noisy machines.
The figures and the accessories are from the Hasegawa 1:48 US Ground Crew Set A.
For the base I have painted the landing area on a one pound photo frame and added some Joefix Studio's grass on a corner.
I have used Tamiya acrylics, at the time a bit difficult for me to use, I couldn't get the right ratio paint/thinner.
This was first attempt spraying paint with an airbrush. You can see the thick coat on the fuselage as result.
I was so happy when I called it done and keep a special place in my heart.
