OK, Fabio, you have the kit, now lets get busy!
(looks really cool, too!)
I'll be looking forward to watching this one come together, my friend...keep us posted on your progress...hey, since this build is part of our Military Small Craft campaign entry's, and with your great contacts at Italeri Models, maybe they would be interested in sponsoring a special prize for us????
Cheers,

Ciao Fabio

If you need any references, here's my MTM Barchino Walkaround from Museo Storico Navale - Venezia, Italia

Hope this helps!
The model looks very good, with the usual latest Italeri quality
Keep us posted, please!

Best regards,
Skipper
