Unfortunately I found only today the time to start working on the Italer's Barchino. It needs just a few mods and the bulding process is quite straight forward and to put it together it took less than an hour and a half.
All of the sub assemblies are built, but some details that will be added after the colouring of the interiors.
Hopefully I'll start the paintwork tonight...
The rest of the pics is available here.

P.S.: sorry for the copyrighted images but I have to write an article on Kits Review about the barchino...

Looks VERY nice Fabio, thanks for sharing the pics, mate...I think that you're going to be the first entrant to post pictures in the "finished gallery"!
Keep modeling!

Thanks for your kind words. So far it has been fun, even if a few details were missing or to be improved.
Yes Kenny the figure is included and it's not bad at all.
