BradG Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Not a bad little kit, although the decals were pretty thick and detail is sparse. I masked and painted the fuselage red and white along with the anti glare panel and the wing leading edge. I really should have painted on the roundels too. This aircraft was armed with two 40mm HO-301 cannon designed to knock down B-29's, but in reality, the weapon was just as lethal to the pilot as the B-29 due to the low muzzle velocity. Pilots had to get dangerously close to open fire with any accuracy. Learstang and Mal_Belford 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Nice! What scale Brad? Kev Oh, never mind - I see it's tagged as 1/72. I built that kit about a million years ago. I think it's still in a junk box somewhere... Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywifehatesmodels Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Nice Ki-44, Brad! I built this kit when I was much younger, but didn't do it the justice that you have. Well done! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Good job on what's a really pugnacious-looking little fighter. I just picked up one these in the last week on eBay. Actually rather a nice little kit that obviously builds up into an attractive model. Regards, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
