Bill Davis Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Ki-44-II, 29 Sentai ,2nd Chutai ,AnchangI Formosa, August 1944. I used Quickboost exaust and a True Details pilot seat on this Hasegawa kit. This was the first time I tried the "hair spray" method for the chipped paint effect. It was tedious and time consuming, but I was pleased at how it turned out. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28ZComeback Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Really luxurious finish!!! Absolutely gorgeous! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Brilliant! I've been somewhat of a fan of the Ki-44 since I built one (Hasegawa 1/72). For no particular reason I've liked the look and proportions of the Shoki, ever since. Your hair spray method worked beautifully - a top-shelf build! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Excellent. The extra work with the chipping is really rewarding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim R-T-C Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Lovely work and the chipping looks realistic - it's very easy to overdo it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VolkerR. Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Really nice finish. Your model captures the worn look of these late war japanese aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I, too, have always liked the looks of the Ki-44, and your build is outstanding. Very restrained and realistic weathering and scuffing, too! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
