jeroenpeters Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Luckily a different version than the HPH one. http://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/3669-radu-brinzan-shares-his-new-132-ohka-kit-with-us/ Zero77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 That's pretty cool, and quite unexpected!

Thomas Lund Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Looks beautiful, but I'd rather have someone redo the V-1 as a 'regular' V-1... Zero77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanKB Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Looks amazing. 64 Euro's plus shipping. Maybe one for the enthusiasts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeroenpeters Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 If i didn't have the HPH Ohka already, I would have certainly bought one. A cool subject that will go nice alongside my Reichenberg. I am noticing more and more we as large scale modelers are getting spoiled. Standard reactions to new offerings are: • too expensive • why don't they make a ...., instead of a ...... I'm waiting for the: • i heard someone say the dimensions and shape are all wrong. Cheers!

Radub Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Looks amazing. 64 Euro's plus shipping. Maybe one for the enthusiasts? Thanks DeanKB. :-) That price also includes VAT. The price outside European Union is 52 euro (the store removes it automatically at the checkout). If i didn't have the HPH Ohka already, I would have certainly bought one. This is a different type of Ohka and has nothing in common with the type 11 already released by HpH. In my personal opinion, the type 22 was better-looking. ;-) As for the V-1... I have done quite a lot of 3D work on a V-1 and on a Reichenberg a few years ago but I never really brought either to completion.

DougN Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Looks very nice. Is the canopy clear resin or vacuform (or are both included since I see 1 clear resin and 1 vac part listed)? Thanks, Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radub Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 The windscreen is clear resin and the sliding canopy is vacuform. The sliding canopy is very "snug-fitting" on the real thing, so the only way to make it accurately was to make it in vacuform plastic. A clear resin sliding canopy would need to be a certain thickness for casting, but that would interfere with that "snug-fit".

Brian79 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Looks nice, and i agree completely different animal than the type 11. Who did you get to print the decals and make the resin parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero77 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 The kit looks awesome ! It would be my third Ohka kit (with HPH and Ozmods), and fortunately a new and different version ! Thanks again Radu ! My wallet hates you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radub Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Looks nice, and i agree completely different animal than the type 11. Who did you get to print the decals and make the resin parts? Thanks everyone for your support. The resin parts were cast by CMK and the decals were printed by Fantasy Printshop. I designed all masters.

Brian79 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) My kit arrived today so I thought I would do a quick run down for those interested in buying it. Sorry no pictures because photobucket and posting pics on the net in general is just a pain any more... PROS Its rapid prototyped CAD so the detail is better than can be done by hand! Casting is super sharp cockpit is especially well done seperate control surfaces Decals are stunning, the stencils are extremely well done PE is well done also as are the belts Vac canopy has a spare just in case to ease the tension! Instruction booklet is really well illustrated Definately one of the best resin kits I have ever seen CONS Missing parts, my example is missing both intakes (Items R22) and some of the mass balances Broken parts, a couple of the tubing portions are broken Actual parts are not labeled, should be no problem though with the excellent instructions Resin windscreen has some pitting, which is a shame because its well molded Instructions available on-line only (no problem for me but might be for some) Overall excellent kit, with some of the best casting I have ever seen, way better than HPH for example. I just can't understand why manufactuers take the time to develop and cast these beautiful parts and cram them all into a little ziploc bag so they knock around and get damaged. I will be starting this one very soon time permitting. Thanks to RB Productions for putting together this great little kit!
