My 1/100 Repaints and OOB Builds

[Rata]

Hey everybody. Long time no post I know but been busy with my other love- 1/25 plastic cars; pics of which I can put up on 'Other Things We Do & Make' if anyone wants to see them. In between those projects I was always doing paper model repaints and builds- the vast majority S&P creations- which starting today I'll post in this thread.
First cab off the rank is a Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate duo which older ex plastic forum members may recognize as the subjects of the old Hasegawa 1/72 kit. A lot of my repaints are nostalgic recreations of 60's and 70's plastic kits that I built or wanted to build back in the day.
These "Franks' are currently available as a set for $1.50 from EcardModels.

Great to see you back in the Forum, Garry!

I bought the Ki-84 bundle and some others.

Good wishes,

Don

Thanks Don! Good to be back. And big thanks for the purchases.

BTW, something that just may pique your interest, I'm in the process of working on some repaints and sub type variations of Bruno's Boeing F4B, Curtiss F11C/BFC-2 and Grumman F3F models.

Hi Garry-it's good to see you post again.

I've seen your recolors showing up on ecars and they inspired me to do a few of my own.

Thanks Karol, good to be back mate.

I've done a bunch of recolours of Bruno's old Bell P-63 Kingcobra. Added a few refinements like new canopy, reshaped nose and landing gear. I've covered a variety of subjects like WWII USAAF, Russian, a French P-63C and a majorly clipped wing racer. I much prefer to personally test build any repaint before publishing, and as such here's the first one: RP-63G 'Pinball' manned target aircraft. Currently available from Ecards.

Great see again my friend! Great builds as always!

Gary,
I am glad your wife has let you use the internet again. Excellent repaints.

Thanks fellas. And Brent, she hasn't. I've just managed to crack the Parental Lock code.

Repaint of a repaint. Avro Rota Autogiro which has slightly altered markings and rescaled to 1/100 from the 1/87 Leif Ohlsson model (which in itself is based on the Kampfflieger 1/72 original) and is a free download from this site.
