Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build

Looking good, Lyle. A simple brown chalk grinded to a fine powder, few drops of water and a single drop of dish soap and brush it all on would suffice.

Thanks John and Tom.

Oh, I got that recipe….just tired of it right now. I am going to finish this, though. The help awaits. I have a few more B&Ps to add and I’ll do some more dirt.

Either you weather i5 or not, that’s a cool tank, Lyle. I had actually thought about grabbing that one for this GB at one point until I found the Rufe. I’ve already done the Kingfisher and why not do a WW2 Japanese floatplane? So the Rufe it is….

[LyleW]

You should do one. Neat little subject.

[BlackSheep214]

Yeah… I should.

Well, I am at the 99.9% done point now... I still need to add an antenna wire tomorrow once the antenna mast is fully dry in place, and some dirt on the wheels.



after I add those things, I'll get the usual multi angle photos up in the proper completed forum...
For the purposes of this GB thread, it is finished!

Oh man, never post a 99.9 % done model Stik Now we feel like we've seen it already
At any rate, it looks quite impressive. The camo looks just great. Would never have guessed it's the old Otaki kit if I did not know it already!

[Stikpusher]

Thanks Chris! Lol! Yup, it’s an old Otaki mold… nice exterior but the innards need help!

[tempestjohnny]

A really good looking finish Carlos. Would never know its that old of a kit

[Stikpusher]

Thanks TJ!

Calling this one done. . . before anything else falls off....
