Tachikawa Ki.36 jungle Mission *Finished*

Daniel Klink
Starting with the Ki.60 by RS.. some Dryfitting and Cockpitassembling with etched Parts being prepared...

Cuajete
Following. I want to see your Ki-28 too 🙂

Daniel Klink
welcome mate.. I will start with the RS Kit..also known as sanding the unsandable soft material

Patryk S.
Following! Very interresting subjects.

Daniel Klink
Welcome Patryk..jm ok just did a bit dryfit with the Ki.28 and have to say..
"life is too short for bad kits" ..grhmpf but it is the only way to build one in this scale despite scratching completely.. The material is also so thick and brittle...
And with the Ki.60 the problem is that all PE-Parts are wrong numbered in the construction sheets.I should have looked at it before...
Perhaps the A5M2b or the KA-14 first?? 🙂

Cuajete
Something I saw in a review about the bad fit on the Ki-28.
A5M2b and KA-14... This may be the right time 😛

Andy Ball
Two unusual subjects, (for me), so will watch your wizardry unfold.....

Daniel Klink
Woohoo thanks Andy but i will surrender i assume.
But anyway. it is time for squared Cookies 🙂
@Cuajete jop but first comes a surprise which can barly be seen left hand in the last pic

Guy Rump
Following with interest Daniel 🙂

Cuajete
"@Cuajete jop but first comes a surprise which can barly be seen left hand in the last pic"

Daniel, I can't see what you say in last pic, but any surprise of yours can't be bad 🙂

Daniel Klink
Welcome Guy and Roland ..take a seat please..
@cuajete yop pic 5 it was I will do a Ki.36 in jungle scheme first.

Andy Ball
I like the 'base-ics', basically.

Daniel Klink
🙂 👍

Jim J
Nice base. The scheme looks very interesting. Following along. And you changed your photo...🙂

Daniel Klink
Hi Jim, and welcome...👍
Yes this is the original one... the ones before were models 🙂
We need humor these times and i shortly watched the first two sessions of Hogans Heroes..
Just great stuff especially the german synchronization.

Greg Baker
Sign me up for this one, Colonel!

Andy Ball
You're trying Montex?....(my Pee-wits didn't fair too badly on the Do-17z, but won't be using vinyl anymore)

Daniel Klink
Hi andy badly Montex is the only game in town for this type

Daniel Klink
Hi Greg, welcome mate👍
Cheers Wilhelm 🙂

Youtube Video

Daniel Klink
Cause there is no interior in the kit i scratched a bit to fill the emptiness

Cuajete
Well done so far.
I used Montex masking for mi Dornier Do-24 and It did well.

Daniel Klink
Thanky mate,, i hope it will o his job....
as do the Fujimi decals i hope..i am somewhat curious how it will work.. never did this kind of Decalswork before.
And the first time with japanese Decals.....hm...

Daniel Klink
Though nearly 40 years old still not a bad kit by Fujimi!
Nearly no filler required so far

Daniel Klink
So far so good with the Montexmasks really not that bad

Cuajete
Looking good so far 👍

Daniel Klink
Thank you mate👍

Patryk S.
Looking very nice so far! Hope you will also get back to the initial projects as they are very interresting planes indeed.

Daniel Klink
Ho Patryk welcome and thank you👍
The ki60 will be done, the ki28 rather not 🙁
Btw the decals by fujimi seem to work👍

Daniel Klink
Now all i can o is wait and hope that the Decalsoftener stuff will do its job 🙂

Daniel Klink
Spraying the camo is easier definetely 🙁

Patryk S.
The decals look to be conforming very nicely. Looks like you are almost done. Will definetly end up as a looker!

Cuajete
Very nice so far, Daniel...
What does the white figure have in his hand?

Greg Baker
This is looking like another Klinktastic build...

Daniel Klink
Hi Mates thank you very much for your nice words!
@Patryk..yap they seem to work quite well.
@Cuajete this should represent some sort of wateing can in his lft hand 🙂

Daniel Klink
A thin coat of Alclad Aqua Gloss and some panelwashing added..
Next is the postshading thing with a mixture of smoke and 95% thinned Dark green..

Roberto Rocat
Really interesting, and a great work so far 👍

Daniel Klink
Hi Roberto... Tutto a posto?
Thank you mate.. it is nearly finished now...exhaust clouds and wahing is done..
Just a few more bits like ordnance, antennas etc..
Nice little kit despite of its age really

Cuajete
Looking so good, Daniel... waiting for the final pics 🙂

Patryk S.
Congratulations! Very nice result! Hope to see more japanese subjects coming from your hand.

Andy Ball
Surreal camo!, great dio!!

Daniel Klink
Thank you mates for joining this one ..
@Patrik sure it is my favorite field in scale modelling..japanese Airplanes 🙂
Did quite a few of them
@Cuajete it is done nowThank you Andy
You were righ wih the Montex masks.
They are really a bit of a mess as i feared with the rests of glue on the cleaparts but it was ok.
The decals were a real challeng to me but it it looks quiet ok for me.
Ready for mission...👍

Roberto Rocat
Hi Daniel, yes, tutto a posto, so far 👍 I really like this work of yours, bravo!

Guy Rump
As usual, another great model, congrats Daniel 🙂

Daniel Klink
Thank you very much Roberto, Roland and Guy..
Very glad you like the scene...👍 Makes me a little proud mates thanks again..

Jim J
Wonderful build! Really like your diorama and the positioning of the figures. Cool camo.

Cuajete
Very nice diorama, Daniel. Fantastic result one more time. Your'e still onfire. Congrats!

Daniel Klink
Thank you Jim and Cuajete!
Much appreciated and glad you like the scene🙂

David Januska
Well Daniel, very nice result. The dio is so real. Another master piece👍.

Daniel Klink
Hi David my Friend. Hope you are still doing fine ...
Thank you very much for your kind words.. much appreciated 👍

Daniel Klink
I filled the deep furrows in the base an iltered them with sandy brown and khaki .
I like it better that way..

Daniel Klink
Added some vntage effect to the last pic - How do you like it?

James C
Very nice work and a bloody tricky paint scheme as well. You've pulled it off nicely with this build... and especially in 1/72 scale. I tried a similar scheme in 1/35 on my Ferdinand. Doesn't look as good as this. 👍

Dave Flitton
Very nice, where did you get the decals for this old model?

Daniel Klink
Hi James and Dave.
Thanks mates, the decals came with the kit in a special edition by fujimi, and were to my surprise not that tricky as usual by this manufactur.
You will need a fair amount of softener of course .

Cuajete
Nice vintage effect, Daniel 👍

Dave Flitton
Nice!!

Neuling
Very nice diorama!

Daniel Klink
Thank you mates, much appreciated!

Slavo Hazucha
Very nice job on the plane & dio - really like the pic 33 atmo 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Nice decals😉

Spanjaard
very nice model Daniel. as usual... and a question about the ... base. is that a picture frame from ikea or similar? I thought about getting one of those.... but you add something to it?

Clifford Keesler
Most excellent sir.

denis fischer
Excellent !!!

Daniel Klink
Hi mates,feels so good to hear so many warm words and that you like this little scene...
Thank you..
@spanjaard yes it is one of those simple Picture frames, from Ikea for example.
I only added a customized piece of styrodur and fixed it on the backwall.
I really like this kind of frames because there are thick and stable.
Cheers Daniel

Spanjaard
thanks!

Daniel Klink
No probs. Mate 👍

Boris B
ANother nice build and diorama ! It makes me want to build my Ki-55 trainer...

Dave Flitton
Excellent finish

Daniel Klink
Thank you so much Boris and Dave, very much appreciated 👍
Go for it Boris.. It is still a decent kit despite of its age.

Boris B
I think I will start my ki-55 trainer. I'm not sure about the interior color of these airplanes. Is your dark grey accurate or did you not worry too much about it ?
Also,I can't seem to find any picture/sketches of the interior. Do you know of any ?

Daniel Klink
Hi Boris.
I did not care bout te correct coloring for the that exactly reason of missing original pictures of the interior.
Some sources spoke of a kind of Indigo grey interior for the Tachikawa education Aircraft.
so i took this one.
