Kendzior Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Hi All, My first completed kit in 2017: Kawasaki Ki-100-I Koh Type 5 Fighter from Hasegawa, 1:48th scale - white “177†of the 2nd Chutai, 59 Sentai, Ashiya, Kiusiu near Fukuoka, 1945. I used Eduard's photoetched parts dedicated to this kit, in its interior as well as for the exterior of the model. Next are the wheel well covers, where I used a mix of photoetched and resin parts form QB. QB also produced the horizontal tail planes and exhaust stacks (not visible on the photos). Paints used here are Vallejo's White Aluminium, Tamiya's IJA Green, Gunze's H79 and IJA Green inside the cockpit. Markings have been sprayed with use of Montex and DIY masks. Not fully happy with the result, especially the weathering - most of my efforts simply vanished after a flat clear spray cote. Feel free to comment, hope you like it.

LSP_K2 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Very nice. I'd like to see this in 1:32 one of these days. Kendzior 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendzior Posted February 15, 2017 Author Share Posted February 15, 2017 Thanks, Kev. Well, there's a conversion set in 1:32nd scale, not very challenging. I'm afraid that this type is not popular enough to be made by any mainstream producer, maybe someone like Silver Wings would. Anyway, I'd like to have one in a large scale too.

Lud13 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Man that radial engine sure looks odd on that airframe, nice work. Kendzior 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Thanks, Kev. Well, there's a conversion set in 1:32nd scale, not very challenging. Best regards Hubert I know, and I've considered it. Here's the review of the Alley Cat conversion, done by LSP_Ray. I still want to eventually get my hands on the Aero Detail book too; also by LSP_Ray.
