Fuad

Hi Folks, Model refined with photoetched parts from the "Eduard", designed for Hasegawa. Wheels and machine guns - resin from the "Aires". - Re-made ​​the tail wheel; - Removed an incorrect joint gear doors and cut the right; - Added imitation of landing gear hydraulics; - Grind off stabilizers bombs; - Pitot tube made ​​from medical needle and a piece of the drill; - The antenna is made from nylon thread; - Crosses on the wing made ​​with a stencil. - Navigation lights are made from clear plastic and glue, and then painted Tamiya Clear Red &Green; Primer - Alclad, primary colors, the simulation of dust on the wheels and the selection of the lower panels, paints and pigments - Tamiya, lacquers - Futura and Tikurilla. Washing - MIG.

This machine was the result of work of Japanese aircraft Jiro Horikoshi - the man who created the legendary "Zero". Interesting form of the fuselage provided the 1800 hp engine "Casey" who had too large cross-section, and to minimize the lack of a large "forehead" of the actuator via a long shaft, and a special fan to cool the engine has reduced cross hood. Wide engine has provided a luxurious cabin - to the delight of the pilots. According to the terms of reference of Japanese military establishment, planes «Raiden» (Thunder) have been designed to reflect the high-altitude bomber raids. Their ceiling was impressive for its time - 11,700 meters. I was grinding all of edges. Navigation lights were made from transparent colored plastic. I used the etched parts from "Eduard." From "Lion Roar’s” brass tubes I made the gun and expand their outlets, making a characteristic bell. The "Pito" tube was made from injection needles and debris 0.2 mm drill bit. The antenna was made from synthetic fiber. Contrary to the instructions - niche and gear doors painted in the color "Aotake." Did so, I was trusting to image from Japanese magazine “Famous Airplanes of The World # 61, 1996 - Navy Interceptor "Raiden". But the landing gear of "Raiden" in the American Museum "Fame Museum, Chino, CA" painted in the color of the bottom panels. Used paint - Tamiya. "Hinomaru" and the band ​​of quick identification were made from masks from tape. Washing is MIG, varnishes are “Future” and “Tikurilla”. Soot, exhaust and dust effect - "Tamiya weathering master".

It is actually very interesting aircraft on construction. For example, few people know that this aircraft has four in-line engine, not two radial. And don't be confused by their circular front)).

I'm totally agree with you. I have the most various Luftwaffe aircraft models collection because they had really big diversity. My collection has nothing to do with my political views))).

It couldn't be better than Bf-109's, because it had very complicated system of cooling evaporators on the wing and a retractable radiator bottom. It was so very vulnerable.

Heinkel He-100 - a series of prototypes of high-speed fighter aircraft, developed before World War II in Germany. The plane set national and world speed record, was actively used by Germany for propaganda and disinformation about the power of the new fighters the Luftwaffe, but not commercially produced and arms was not adopted. I was added wheels from the "Equipage". Antenna from a nylon thread, hydraulic supplies on chassis made from wire, exhaust pipes from beer tin, navigation lights made ​​from glue, Pitot tube from brass tube and drill a piece of 0.2 mm, the indicators of the landing gear made from a toothbrush. Grind off the edge of the wing.

Hi, Folks! This is one of the few German bombers during the Second World War. I used photoetched parts from "Eduard" and the wheels of the "Equipage".

Thank you very much for this information. I know that this helicopter identified by NATO specification as "Hind". And "Hind" means "deer". It is very well matched with the ancient Hungarian legend, as a marketing gag!

I'm very glad to see you here, Mr.Steiner!

Very nice set. Take bold.

A very interesting fact. Board number is the same -714! AFAIK, Hasegawa released this decal with his ugly model many years ago. Interesting to know - when repainted this board and from what to what?

I can nothing new to say about this legendary helicopter. Is it just the fact that it is well modernized version of Mi-35 "Super Hind" has a good demand and very urgent. The work is done in 2 weeks. I used the BIG ED ​​set and wheels from the "Equipage". Made riveting and bore some holes, made ​​antenna strung ropes (from hair). Bottom rope is made from synthetic filament. Headlamp is made from «Swarovski» crystals. The front bar made from of the injection needle with etched details. Quad barrel "YaKB" is also made from the needles. Decals with stylized hind were given from Hasegawa. Paints – Tamiya, Alclad. Varnishes - Futura. The “weathering” did not made specifically, because the prototype is clean and varnish – for the parade and exhibition.

I will watch with great pleasure!

I made the runway from a set of ICM http://www.hannants.co.uk/search/index.php?search=PAG-14. I just stick them on a piece of wood and painted.

Model made in 2011. I used etched parts from Eduard. Antenna cables made from synthetic filament, chassis wiring - copper wire of 0.2 mm, cannon and machine guns – injection needles, wing navigation lights - transparent colored plastic. I drilled exhaust pipes, the holes to clear cases and other openings. Ground off too protruding ribs on the rudder and stabilizer. The mirror is made from Christmas tinsel. Identification marks on the lower surface of the wing, the band on the tail and the band of rapid identification at the edge of the wing are painted by hand. Paint from Tamiya. Varnishes – Pledge Future and Tikurilla. Washing - MIG and X-19 Smoke. The assembly process is here http://scalemania.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=289

O no, it was the hairdryer directed to the prop.

Hawker Typhoon Mk.Ib "Tiffy" from 175th squadron. This model was made in 2011. I drilled exhaust pipe, simulated guns from brass tube. The radiator grille is made from etched grid elements + native part. Cab was made from etched parts and resin ("Eduard" and "Aires"). Landing lights made from strass, closed with tape. Cut out to clear the sleeves. Re-made ​​pitot tube and chassis wiring. Painted with Revell and Tamiya.

Many thanks once again for such a detailed response.

Yes. I did riveting it.

Boris, you know perfectly well that the Italian colors varied depending on the amount of solvent in them. What about the Italian colors, and there is no single clear standard. I told you to other resources have repeatedly talked about this and I referred to the book "Авиаколлекция 2006-12 Окраска итальянских ВВС 1922-1945" The more you know, I use a special "Italian" set of colors from the Model Master. How did you decide that you are the undisputed expert in the Italian colors? I would appreciate it very much if you do not make comments for comment.

Many thanks for additional information. I have no doubt that the Italians were better placed to know their aircraft. Just as I know the Soviets . I glued decals according to notes of kit and some images of this aircraft in the network. Unfortunately, I have not found native photos of this aircraft. And what about the flag on the right side of the fuselage - I'm accept it. I just thought that the national flag should not change the location of their colors. The first color of Italian flag - is green .

Superbly made ​​surface. It is unfortunate that very few pictures.

Just finished a new model - the next "easy kit" from HB. All edges grilled, added etched into the cockpit. Navigation lights from transparent colored plastic. New-maded lower antenna from the sewing needle and machine guns and cannon made from injection needles. Shark mouth painted by hand. Paints - Tamiya, varnish - Futura and Tikurilla. The sight made from other etched parts. Enjoy watching and thanks for the comments.
