Well another very interesting project. Looking forward for the amazing result👍. What type of japanese cammo it will have? The same as on the picture? Or something "very special"?

It will be an example to follow for those of us who also have yet to make this kit in the future 👍

Ok Daniel san
"I" in the "Type I heavy bomber" ("yi "might be a more appropriate English rendering of the Japanese pronunciation) is derived from the initial of Italy.
" jyubaku" is a Japanese contraction of heavy bomber. Thus, "I-shiki jyubaku" becomes "Type I heavy bomber".
Incidentally, the Ki-21 Sally (Type 97 heavy bomber) has the most familiar name "Kyunana jyubaku(here the type is omitted) in Japan. 😉

Hi Daniel! REALLY A PERFECT job on the etched parts!
If I may... I'm not totally convinced about the inner green, the Italian "verde anti corrosione" ( Italian Interior Green - FS 34558) was a bit different. Maybe it depends only on the light and the picture...

In order to get a authentic Br.20 i had to grind and fill the generator molded by Italeri and rebuild it a few mm forward. Luckily the whole thing is part of the etched Parts kit. Also the booth for the Observer behind the cockpit had to be cut out of the Fuselage.

Thanks Cuajete and Robin!👍
Ill have to find a solution for the generator!

Thank you very much Julian, Cuajete and Maicon 👍
The bigger challenge is to take a picture where you can see it as it looks on the bench. 🙂

One can really see that preshading through the paint. Looks really good Daniel.

Dear Daniel, you are really the master of the Italian planes! I'm super happy to have the opportunity to follow your work!👍🏻

Now I know why I didn't get this kit in my stash - too many cool camos to choose from. Beautiful paintwork, can't stop lurking here Herr Klink 😉

Wow, Daniel... Looks great! Fantastic painting job as always.
I think like Łukasz: Too many cool camos to choose from.

Thank you all mates for you warm and praising words.. Very much appreciated 👍
Now the fiddly antenna construction must be done by scratch ...
6 July 2022, 21:21

The magic of rigging/antennas.
I really need to look into that. Planes and ships look somehow incomplete without.
Do you use a fine sewing thread for that or special hobby material like from Uschi van der Rosten or AK, was it I believe?
7 July 2022, 07:21
![](/profiles/img/27826-126-s.jpg)
The rigging looks great, Daniel!! 👍
How did you make the extreme parts that are holded with tweezers? Fine braided copper wire?
7 July 2022, 17:13
![](/profiles/img/38460-541-s.jpg)
Hi mates, first of all many thanks for your warm and nice comments👍
Very much appreciated🤛
I used flexible rigging stuff by MiG for the wire and the triangles are soldered spare parts of a etching fret!
