AntoineG Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Hi, Today I'd like to share with you my first finished model for 2019. This is Airfix recent Kate, built out of the box. The only add-ons were the seat belts from Eduard and the brake wires. It was really an enjoyable kit to assemble. Airfix option to present the canopy open is very nice, though I didn't take the chance to paint the frames that are under "sliding" parts. Paints are from Gunze. The other down side of the kit were the decals. The hinomaru were quite hard to comply with the details on the wings and fuselage surfaces. Hope you'll enjoy it. Cheers, Antoine 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Whoa! That looks awesome! I would find that camo pattern very daunting myself. You seem to have pulled it off, no trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
