When I see a finish like this it makes me realise just how lacking I am in the skills for weathering. Simply amazing work Tony. Question. Wont you have some collectors of vintage kits turning in their graves at the thought of you ripping into a 50 year old kit and building it. ?:sick:

Fantastic Tony, great weathering on the paintwork

Nice one Tony. I do like a well used aircraft, and this one ticks so many boxes for me. Top job.

Thanks guys , im chuffed with how it turned out and youre right Steve , most ‘collectors’ would be outraged at the thought of somebody actually building a rare kit ! :smiling5::thumb2:

Sorry completely missed this crossing the finish line.

That's turned it beautifully. Worn but not too warn.

Very well done.

Fantastic work Tony with an amazing finish. The chipping in particular is sublime.

Umm, I think I've got that 'Tony' in the stash. Moulded in silver too

I THINK I still do...

[Waspie]

Oooops, so busy with my own probs I missed this un Tony. Sorry!!
However, you have done a really good job on that build. The cockpit is just stunning. Must buck up and keep up to date with folks builds.

Thanks all , Doug - no need to apologise I cant keep up with the rapid turnover of posts either , got my own stuff going on too , cheers tony

Hmm. I do indeed have the silver moulded Ki-61. Didn't remember I'd already built the cockpit and put the wings together... With a less than succesful attempt at a lacquer-look green preservative colouring... Back to pending...
