Seamus Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Morning all, Continuing with my Japanese binge, my latest build is the slightly unusual Nanzan from Tamiya. A pretty straightforward kit with no vices as you'd expect from Tamiya, I've finished it completely from the box. AK real colour was used to paint the interior, with Mr Color for the exterior including the Hinomarus, with the details finished using Tamiya and Alclad where appropriate. Final matt varnish was from Hataka Orange Line. Had a few issues with primer seeping under the masking, which has left the framing looking rather messy, time to rethink priming straight from the can I reckon.... Thanks for looking, comments welcomed Shaun 36 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ngantek Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Lovely model! Beautiful flawless finish is very pleasing to the eye. Sounds like you were building for a competition to use as many different paint brands as possible! It's an intriguing aircraft that I'd never heard of before. I was going to make a facetious comment about the fin looking like it had been sawn off for spare metal and it seems that's not far from the truth. I really like the look of these Japanese inlines (been keeping my eye out for a fujimi d4y2 kit for a while), and this one also fits the brief of being a slightly nutty idea, which I'm always partial to. Really nice job, thanks for posting! Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toryu Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Great rendition of a less frequently presented plane. You hit the nail on the head with the orange trainer/experimental colour. Very well done! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeusa Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Lovely build of a plane not normally seen. The orange finish was pulled off and looks realistic rather than toy like; which is somewhat hard to do. Thanks for sharing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
