bsalmon Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 A very toy-like kit. Fits well in places but not in others. Sooooo many things needed fixing. All rivets were sanded off as the real aircraft was flush riveted and panel lines rescribed. A tarp made from white Milliput was used to hide what isn't in the cockpit. Painted in standard Japanese camo colours then sprayed over with Tamiya acrylic white and then brushed with enamel white. This Jake is in surrender colours as prescribed at the time before being flown to the RNZAF base at Jacquinot Bay, New Britain in Sept 1945. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc72 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I like Japanese floatplanes and this one looks very good. Also the weathering and the wood effects on the dolly are impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
