denders Posted December 11, 2023 Author Share Posted December 11, 2023 Thanks, Mark. I hope you won't be disappointed. I'm working on finding the best reference for the top surface camouflage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, when I checked SB for new items, they're now carrying Black Dog. But not the set I needed. Everything shown so far is 1/48. The one I ordered from the ebay seller is supposed to arrive Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denders Posted December 16, 2023 Author Share Posted December 16, 2023 One more AM set to go. It's supposed to arrive tomorrow. Although, I was looking at some 3D printed rudder pedals. Which has brought the thought while I'm typing that, perhaps I should look for a file and print them myself. Hmmmmm Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denders Posted December 16, 2023 Author Share Posted December 16, 2023 (edited) And, when I had decided to build the 190 for this GB, it happened to coincide with SB's weekend discount on books, so I added a few as well as some from ebay too. I found a file that I think I can adapt to print some rudder pedals too. At this point, I'm not sure much is going to be done before the new year. Edit: I forgot the photo.

denders Posted February 2 Author Share Posted February 2 So, I've changed the aircraft that I'm modeling. The Black Dog parts include a clear resin windscreen and pieces to attach to the canopy for the added armor. White 7 does not have the armor added on the two side panels of the windscreen and I decided that I wasn't going to fiddle around cutting both windscreen pieces to make it correct. Therefore, I've switched to Black 8 as shown in Jerry Crandall's "Fighters of the Iron Cross" on pages 322 and 323. The Black Dog parts have separate pieced to add to the kit canopy. As noted in the other GB, we were away over Christmas, got back on the 30th with the colds/respiratory thing that was floating around, had the grandsons for two days and the on January 9 my wife had knee replacement surgery and I've been her 'nurse'. She had graduated from a walker to a cane and is more mobile which should allow me to spend more time upstairs in the 'Office'.

denders Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 Okay, these came the other day, I guess I need to really get started. I need to do some research to see whether these or the other set of wheels are appropriate for this aircraft. Fanes, LSP_Kevin and BradG 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Get yer wheels on Dave! Looks like a good choice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denders Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 Well, the Ki-100 is finished, I guess it's time to get on with it. Although I have to admit that there are lots of other things to distract. LSP_Kevin and Troy Molitor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denders Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Well, the detail has been removed from the IP and side panels and painted in preparation for the Quinta decals. Shoggz, BradG, LSP_Kevin and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denders Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 The cockpit is just about done. Some scratches and dirt yet. And I just noticed that one of the seatbelts has decided to part. Fixed now. patricksparks, Isar 30/07, Alain Gadbois and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Looking forward to this one Dave. I am always skeptical of the Crandall's interpretation on Maximowitz's black eight. The exhaust trimming seems to be a different color than the spinner spiral (Gelb 4) on the two photos I have on this aircraft. Regardless, I'm following with enthusiasm. My Ki-100 is well advanced. The wife however has the basement total retro in work. Installed an 8' sliding door over the w/e and knocked out a huge chunk of my house in the process. Three walls now insulated and sheet rocked and Im sore sore sore. Hoping the wife a speedy knee recovery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
