@ Busoramas - you have to ask it to Halinski It is "solid" and I suppose that it is some kind of offset printing. It looks always the same on not very old kits from this stable, excluding the silver finish in the Ki-43 (I have a copy) and probably some others...

The assembly sequence for the middle fuselage skin parts may look unorthodox. The objective was to ease the skin parts alignment and get regular joints. I’d say that it worked well.

I would say fit together very well. You did a great job. The cockpit looks great in place too.

Nice clean fuselage
Unorthodox technique but very effective, did the same with my Gremir Hurricane

Thanks for the comments

@ Busoramas - the skills required on paper and plastic modeling are so different that I'd refrain from comparing. I prefer paper because the kits are already painted and I find the assembly work pleasing. It is a matter of taste. My experience with "print at home" kits is rather disappointing and that has nothing to do with the kit's quality. Among other things, that's why I almost always assemble kits printed by the manufacturers.

The model has a single pylon, in the centerline. However, it includes 3 items of ordnance: a big bomb, a smaller one and a fuel tank. The picture shows the bigger bomb. Discarding the size, it is the same as the smaller bomb.

Dear Ricleite, I am totally agree with you when you say that you enjoy with the assembly process and the quality of the printed by manufactures, In my case, I send to print in laser printers that have a similar quality of ready printed.

but great work of the bomb.

regards

At home print

Ricleite

I agree with what you say buddy, unless you have the best printer (and paper) in the world, its good to buy a book model.

Nice build, I'm watching intently

Regards

You can pose the aircraft with all 3 external loads.


Great work

I also love printed books, but in print shops they have good quality papers and lasers printers.
