Geno Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) Good evening Gentlemen, I'm the new one. After a while of only window shopping, I thought it's about time to show something of my own stuff at britmodeller. Coincidentally I've just finished a model... The Mitsubishi Ka-14 as it appeared in the Hayao Miyazaki movie "The Wind Rises". It's a very nice kit and went together without any fuss. I've just added IJN seat belts by Fine Molds, a hand hold below the cockpit sill and the foot step at the belly from scratch. The model has been sprayed with acrylic paints from the Tamiya range. Comments are welcome, please enjoy the pictures. Greetings from the Black Forest, Bodo Edited November 1, 2017 by Geno new picture links 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestFan Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Very nice, for some reason it reminds me of a pterodactyl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatboydim Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 A great model from a great film. You've made a first class job. Excellent base as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geno Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) Thanks for your kind comments. The base was made of bamboo by a fellow member of a german forum, I've added paint, a decal and some sweat for polishing...

ancient mariner Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Looks like a nice build and finish,for my personal taste the pics are a bit "arty" unless that was the colour of the gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sroubos Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Very nice, if I ever find the courage to cough up the cash for it I'm getting the 72nd version... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGA Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Are you the same Bodo who made this? http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=55433 This Ka-14 is so incredibly beautiful and built by someone very talented. Love your work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geno Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) Thanks very much guys. Looks like a nice build and finish,for my personal taste the pics are a bit "arty" unless that was the colour of the gray. I had some trouble taking the pictures due to different colour temperatures of lighting and the bright contrast of the red areas. So I've used a tool to adjust brightness, saturation, contrast and a sharpness filter. Maybe a bit too much... Are you the same Bodo who made this?http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=55433This Ka-14 is so incredibly beautiful and built by someone very talented. Love your work! Um, unfortunately not... Wrong end of Germany, but a splendid looking Black Widow, isn't it? Geno Edited December 30, 2015 by Geno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGA Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Um, unfortunately not... Wrong end of Germany, but a splendid looking Black Widow, isn't it? Geno It's a stunning build. I instantly thought of it when I saw your because it's equally beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martian Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 That's a lovely little build! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geno Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 @TGA You are really kind mate. The P-61 is a complex piece of art, the Mitsubishi just almost straight from the box. @Martin Thanks for your comment and the welcome. Happy New Year Geno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
