Popular Post Redboost Posted May 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2022 Hello fellow modellers. this is the latest Arma Hobby kit which came as a little suprise after many Allied types or planes connected with Polish aviation. This kit is kind a "shake and bake" kit as no real issues were encountered during the course of the build, and eventually, instead of solving any build troubles I could I focus on mixing proper camouflage colors (of course to my eyes) from the Gunze Aqueous stock. The markings comes from the kit and the decals went on nicely too, being printed by Techmod. I only airbrushed the hinomarus with my own mask (a simple affair using Olfa cutter). Cheers, Libor 77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

François Escudé Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 waiting to receive mine !! ... this was my favorite option .. but when seeing what you've done ... I'm thinking twice about building it 😁 anyway I'll probably try 😉. You've done a really wonderful job on a plane which is , in my opinion, the most beautiful radial engine aircraft un WW II . And as per have seen, Arma Hobby did a real nice job with this Ki 84 . I read on their blog that they had more order on this plane than with their P-51 B/C .. can they imagine what it will be if they decided to go on with Ki-43 II and III !!! 😆 Again , very well done !! thanks for sharing ! best regards !! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val_Ukraine Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Great Japanese 'Storm' here! Perfect job as usual, Libor! Were the yellow stripes on the wings and fuselage painted on, or they came from the decal sheet? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Val, the stripes need to be painted on, no decals are provided for them. Thanks everyone for kind comments! Cheers Libor 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redboost Posted May 23, 2022 Author Share Posted May 23, 2022 I used H52 Olive drab with H81 Khaki approx. 50:50% with a touch of white for scale effect. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Stickler Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 An absolutely lovely job and a great demonstration of the superb results that you can get with a 1/72 scale kit with skill and patience (both shown in abundance here). Thanks very much for sharing. Peter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
