Re: Kayaba Katsuodori
That is a brilliant solution to an impossible situation! I commend you for that. Your skills in fitting out that cockpit are remarkable as well. Way to go, I'm going to keep watching this even though I really don't like '46 paper projects.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: Kayaba Katsuodori
Michel, you don´t stop to surprise us!
A very interesting intro to read, and some so beautiful scratch building! Love it!

Re: Kayaba Katsuodori
Yeah, I do keep surprising myself too. Especially with the amount of unnecessary trouble I seem to be able to get myself into, my absolute inability to do anything OOB, my propensity to over-complicate things and my sometimes dogged determination to make an historically correct model of a plane that never even went passed the design stage, much less flew.
But thanks, Thomas, I do appreciate the nice words. The comments I get make me feel that maybe it's worth the effort after all.

That prone pilot makes much more sense. It really is a bit of an oversight by Meng.





Re: Kayaba Katsuodori
It was one of their first kits. I think they've improved since then.
