CV 33 – Diorama

A diorama with this Italian CV 33 light tank was a peculiar gift for a dear friend that now lives in the other side of the world!

This "sardine can", as the CV 33 light tank was nicknamed, really needed a diorama with a human figure beside it to show how tiny it actually was!

CV 33 – Interiors

This model of CV 33 Italian tankette includes the interiors. Once I’ll complete it, very little of those will be visible, thus I’ll show them here.

Versione italiana

The interiors of a scale model, like those of this CV 33, are not always completely visible once the work is completed. Nonetheless, it doesn't mean they don't deserve any attention!
