http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/b4n.jpg

This is a 'chillout model' from poor documentaion, made quite quickly - just I want have some with hinomaru on shelf:)
I have a metallic/pearl paper, nice looking but very crushing, hard to shape it fine.

And time for pics:

Very good job!!! Your work at small scale is great as always.

[jjb89]

WHAT !!!! No!!! I know the matchstick is 30 cm long!!!
Yeah, You unmasked me, its a torch not a matchstick:mad: :)

Engine finished:

[Alcides]

Your build continues very well. I very interested in the way you designed the formers for the wings. It's different from the usual way to make formers for the wings.

[jjb89]

Tail and down wings ready:

http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/th_DSCF2630.jpg (http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/DSCF2630.jpg) http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/th_DSCF2634.jpg (http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/DSCF2634.jpg) http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/th_DSCF2637.jpg (http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/DSCF2637.jpg)

Here is designer mistake :mad: :

http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/th_DSCF2626.jpg (http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm64/jjb89_bucket/DSCF2626.jpg)

Alcides, Why different? I think this is good when wings are folding(not in one piece) like this plane and warrant correct profile. Ask what You want know more:)
Regards

[jjb89]

Next update:
Upper wing put without of glue, only for photo.

Your build continues great and I like a lot the paper colors.

About my question, sorry I my mistake. I really was talking about this pieces: 1 and 2, I haven't seen this a lot in airplanes but maybe I don't have seen so many models as I tought :rolleyes:.

79303


You don't have to cut in angle the edges to glue it to the formers ?

Alcides

Anyway I'm going to buy your model :)

[jjb89]

Hi Alcides!

This elements holding ribs in 90 deg angle to fuselage - it's very helpful in wing covering.
It's from two ply of card, has 0,4 -0,5 mm thickness so no need to cut in angle.
(if I undersatnd Your question correctly:))

Will be nice to see this model in Your perform!

One of two parts of engine cover:

Jackek I love the landing gear, very good solution for the wheels covers. Are just 4 parts ?

[jjb89]

Jacek I love the landing gear, very good solution for the wheels covers. Are just 4 parts ?

5 parts, on the center is rectangular stripe.
I 'm glad for You like cover in this kind. Personaly I prefer that design, than cutting and folding edges.

It is a beautiful model. Japanese Navy aircraft, including pre-WWII aircraft, have been popping up in the Forum with satisfying regularity lately.

[gomidefilho]

Very very nice! I'm crazy to get my copy!!!!

[jjb89]

[gomidefilho]

Any news about this model? Is avaliable soon???

[jjb89]

Sorry for delay, unfortunately I must work in my job (in the same programs which I using to make models :( ) I don't want promises realse date, but I hope it will be soon.

[jjb89]

Double post, please delete this.

[jjb89]

Hi!

Yokosuka is ready, it should be available today.

I am quite happy with finish effect. This is my first biplane, first sculped prop too.
And this my biggest model, kit are in 9 pages. Cover, 3 pages with parts, 3 with instruction diagrams, one with sculped propeller tutorial (i learn this method here (http://modelarstworedukcyjne.pl) and just modifed it to papermodeling) one page with piece of carrier's deck for standing.
It will be different way to build, simple, medium, most detailed. For example You can use 2D flat engine, build main body and cylinders, or use all of parts.
Also some parts are marked green, You can use them, but can skip too, they not affect the construction.

Photos are in plenner, becouse my cat asleep in my tent shadeless and fall down with it as a desk... cat nothing has happened...:)

Ok, don't longer anymore, Final Gallery:

This is an outstanding model! Somehow I missed this thread entirely until today. Your 3D rendering, build, and step by step photographs are all first rate. Exceptional model and thread.

[gomidefilho]

Hello Jacek! Thank you for the model, I purchase my copy for the both models a few moments ago, and his my top priority build with the model is arrived in my email ;)

[Alcides]

I've to say it again: Beautiful work Jacek. The model is great and the pictures too. I've received the files and they look great. I just need time .... time ... time.
Nice touch the tutorial about the sculpted propeler.

[hatsudoki]

Thank you Jacek,

I got mine a few days ago. I was worried for a while, because only the silver one turned up. But before I could get in touch with you, the other version arrived too. They are beautiful!

Cheers,

Mike

[jjb89]

Thanks!

Hatsudoki Yes, I sending PDF separately, both are to heavy for my mail box and sometimes e-mails are undelivered.

Regrads!
