Nice work on a very small scratchbuild - that concept looks like a suicidemission to me  :-)

Ciao Ripley,
I really like your "work". Italian small vessels are always very nicely designed, and so is yours. Maybe you want to try an MAS 500 next ? 
 
Btw, where did you find the plans for the "barchini" ?
Salute

Hi to all.
Geronimo:
perhaps if a day i'll be very, but very able in scatchbuiding i'll try to build a Mas 500.
I just have the plans, but i need more and more experience.
The Grillo that I'm studying is a little step forward that aim. A day....
For the plans of the M.T.M. there are two main book (in Italian):
- I mezzi d'assalto della X flottiglia Mas (X Mas assult vessels).
- MAS e mezzi d'assalto di superficie (MAS and surface assault vessels) from the Italian Navy Historic Office.
I have both, so if you need some info, please write me an e-mail.
Bye!

Ripley,
Thanks for the offer; I'll come back to that. Don't worry about scratchbuilding - it's even worse than it looks like :-)
I notice that every time I work on my S-30's bow section. I don't know the right word for it ... nervous breakdown ?
Have a nice day
Frank
