Wow... following one more time!!

Welcome mate👍

Cuajete
Daniel, Will you drill the main supports of the floats?
5 August 2021, 18:46
Daniel Klink
yap, no other choice 🙂
The problem is Fujimi did them in two halves upper and underside.
So you first have to glue them together and fill the gap.

Take a seat sir..👍

Cuajete
OK, Daniel... When time arrives, it is possible to show the process for build these holey supports?
Thanks!
6 August 2021, 17:49
Daniel Klink
Of course mate 👍

Fit is pretty cool so far👍
Only the winghalves are glued together and just a bit of cleaning will be necessary...👍
The Display bases still haven't arrived from Uk by nearly 4 weeks now...Arghh F+ck that Brexit, Johnson and that Farage son of ...beep! 🙂

25 August 2021, 11:57

Looking good that display base, Daniel 👍
25 August 2021, 19:04
Bruce Huxtable
I think we will all want one 😉
25 August 2021, 19:41
Spanjaard
The base is real base, or just a picture? It looks stunning
25 August 2021, 20:01
Daniel Klink
Hi mates! It is a printed image on a 5mm Mdf base!
25 August 2021, 22:13
Spanjaard
Thanks Daniel
25 August 2021, 22:40
Guy Rump
Following with interest Daniel 👍
26 August 2021, 07:04
Cuajete
Daniel, Does the printed image have some reflection or is it totally matt? Thx!
26 August 2021, 17:30
Daniel Klink
Welcome Guy, take a seat please 👍
@Cuajete, the base is perfectly matt 👍
26 August 2021, 17:52
Bruce Huxtable
Very neat looking plane, looks like no filling needed at all?
27 August 2021, 13:59
Robert Podkoński
With the photo #7 I was convinced that it is a kind of early "stealth" technology 😄 Now I see the plane - good work so far, Daniel.
27 August 2021, 14:02
Daniel Klink
Ok, the kit is really quiet basic and the fit is ok but not as good as i expected!
Absolutely disappointing are the Clear parts...
Very thick and kinda milky. ..Future should help reducing that effect.
27 August 2021, 14:07
Cuajete
Fast build, Daniel 👍.
Finally din't you drill the main supports of the floats?
27 August 2021, 19:40
Daniel Klink
Hi cuajete!
No because on ground they were closed as far as i know😉
27 August 2021, 21:21
Cuajete
😄 👍
29 August 2021, 09:44
Daniel Klink
Started the colorwork! Even with standard landing gear would have looked competitive

All those green stuff looking so good 👍

Loving what you've done on the wings and fuselage. Looks like she's can fly underwater!

fine pre-shading

Bruce Huxtable
Superb 👍,🙂

Daniel Klink
Thank you very much mates for your interest and nice comments or the Zuiun👍
Very much appreciated. if you wonder why the Body is already sprayed and the canopy not.. iam waiting for the mask to amke things easier and because I will show the hole thing open, it is no
problem to attach it afterward to the Fuselage...
1 September 2021, 18:24
Robin (WhiteGlint)
She's coming along real nicely, Daniel. 👍
I have one question regarding your pre-shading. It looks like you used different green tones this time, which looked really interesting.
It is hard to see on the pictures, is there a visible difference/advantage to the black and white pre-shading?
2 September 2021, 13:14
Daniel Klink
Hi white Glint!
There is a big advantage to the black and white!
The problem is that the camera used a brilliance filter that swallows
Nearly all variations! iphone only😉
I will try to make pics under natural light when the zuiun is finished!
In real life the different shades and spots on the surface are much better visible!
2 September 2021, 13:40
James C
Nice job on the paintwork Daniel 👍
2 September 2021, 17:51
Guy Rump

Really liking the finished results, and seeing the preparatory steps is very enlightening. 👍🙂
4 September 2021, 21:48
Simon Nagorsnik
Work is done?
It looks so life like in combination with the base, it fits perfectly together
I love the different japanese vehicles because i think they've a special style😄
Now i can't wait to build my fine molds ki- 61-2 in '72😆
5 September 2021, 05:45
Daniel Klink
Hi mates and many thanks 👍
It is not done yet, still a lot of work to do!
Exhausts, antennas etc. And some more weathering!
You are right Simon! The Designs are mostly slick and elegant!
Especially like their colors!
5 September 2021, 08:58
Daniel Klink
Only the exhausts left to attach...
5 September 2021, 20:03

Watch out that the water doesn't take the decals off!
Very realistic 👍

Mirko Römer
Breathtaking, Daniel!! 👍
6 September 2021, 15:08
Simon Nagorsnik
hi daniel is the display textured or only a flat print
because in the photos it looks very real
6 September 2021, 15:14
Daniel Klink
Hi Mates, thank you all for your support and warm words during this project.
They were very much appreciated and motivates me everytime and helps me developing my skills.
Thanks mates... I call this finished now!
Some more pics to follow!

@Simon it is a flat print, but extraordinary well dome.

Cuajete
Fantastic result one more time, Daniel.
Congrats!
What japanese pick-up is that?
8 September 2021, 17:43
Neuling
Top notch again, concrete and water included! You`re more of an allrounder than merely an aviation expert!
9 September 2021, 09:26
Daniel Klink
Thank you mates, those nice words are very much appreciated👍
@Cuajete a colleague does 3d printing stuff and made some Kurogane Cars .
They are a little too big and windowas are intransparent but they are very well done, and some color given it will look even better. 🙂
9 September 2021, 15:00
Cuajete
I hope to see some of those painted Kurogane, Daniel 😉
I have to settle for some of ACE's kits that I have in my stash, although I still could not get the pickup one.
9 September 2021, 16:38
James C
Fantastic finish Daniel 👍
10 September 2021, 20:40
Alec K
Agreed, excellent work.
11 September 2021, 12:05
Daniel Klink
HI Mates, first of all thank you James and Alec, very glad that like the outcome of Paul 👍
@Cuajete It is really bad that they are out of production, only very few are left in storages somewhere.
That is the reason i orderes them as a 3d print. Will paint the one here soon.
11 September 2021, 20:01

Beautiful result, David. 👍
I would love to see some more daylight pictures of the green shades, if you don't mind.
15 September 2021, 07:13
István Szücs
Fantastic work!
15 September 2021, 08:04
Daniel Klink
Hi Mates, thank you Istvan and White Glint for your nice words.
@White Glint I tried it today but the light was not perfect and the filter of the cam always tries to smooth colors down. See last pic
15 September 2021, 18:16
Robin (WhiteGlint)
Thank you very much for taking some more photos, much appreciated, Daniel. 👍 🙂
Yes, cameras can be a bit nasty from time to time. Still, what I can see is a very nice transition between the different green tones.
I'll definitely give this technique a try on my Grace or Dinah. 👍
15 September 2021, 20:40
Daniel Klink
Very cool, and honors my work mate 👍
It is really effective in my opinion and with th enaked eye the effext is much more visible than with digital cameas.
