1:32 Yokosuka / Kawanishi K5Y1 Akatombo Type 93

I build te Doyusha kit with Gaspatsh turn buckels, it is a rebox of the Nitto kit from 1973, when you build you see the age, it is not up to date but the willow is a seldem build kit.

Your painting and finish looks great. Especially the engine and propellor. But the thick trailing edges of the wing do indeed show the age of the kit. Pity. Still, I think you maximised the potential of this kit.

A nice build of a (again for me) an pretty unknown subject.

Stepping up into 1:32 scale CL ? :-)

That's one of the reasons it's great to have you here, CL. You buils those super esoteric kits most of us never heard of before.
Orange and green is a - let's say interesting - way to camouflage a plane. I'm curious what's the intention behind that.

some models I build in 1:32, only a pair, have some of the old Williams Models Air Racer..and a F-4E Greek Jubilee and have to build some models for friends in this big scale a TA 152 will come soon..but the scope is 1:48.

mostrich: this camo is a japanese idea, very special, in 1:48 my Willow is alu with red tail for early marking, did not the same in 2 scales, orange ok but not special, so this camo brings a bit of conservatio to the peaple who look..

I’ve seen that kit plenty of times in the past on shelves at some shops. But I don’t thainkmthat I’ve ever seen one built up before. Yes it sure does show its’ age. But you built this up quite nicely regardless of that age.
