Transall NG
Hello! Take a seat !
A mix of two TOKO references. A Zavod 18 aircraft with metallic wing.
Well, i guess your father knows that any aircraft can be critisized, as they are always used far over what they were built for...
Good luck !

@Transall NG, my father just got caught up in a wave of "Messerization" in the 1990s. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, a flood of articles about the Luftwaffe flooded into Russia, which was like an ideological distraction. Many people dreamed of Messerschmitt and Focke-Wulf aircraft, considering them the best while simultaneously criticizing Soviet aircraft. Perhaps this was successful because in Soviet times, the qualities of German and Allied aircraft were underplayed, and there was little information about them available.

Duster that's a really interesting insight!

A representative of Zvezda contacted me and, after clarifying some details, informed me that they would send me the missing part of the kit after October 1st. It pleases me.

Interesting subject! I had thought the kikka was almost a direct copy of the Me-262, kind of like the shusui/Me-163 but I see that's not the case. How is the kit? Looks good on the sprues at least.

It's a beautifully molded kit. Very fine detail. Fit is okay, except for the wings to fuselage, but nothing too concerning. There are a couple of sink marks though, which forces me to look foor other main wheels. The Kikka used Zero wheels so that's an easy fix. All in all I like the kit a lot, it looks delicate and to scale, unlike Airfix for example. I already built their A7M1 Reppu, so with the Kikka as a subject I didn't think too long when I came across this one.

Marco Gallmann
That's interresting, I'm in. 👍

Hanno Kleinecke
Lovely colourful scheme ! Checking in !

Bernhard Schrock
Hi mates: your alle welcome. A lot of front seats are still free🙂

Holger Kranich
Einmal das Curryschnitzel Bombay und `ne Pommes bitte! Du hast auch vor keinem Bausatz angst, oder?😉 So i take place!

Bernhard Schrock
Hey, herzlich willkommen als Gast: ist leider alle aber ich kann dir zum gleichen Preis Saltimbocca mit Rosmarin Kartoffeln anbieten. Ist es auch o. k.? Übrigens habe ich die Stranraer überlebt: danach hast du vor gar nichts mehr Angst🙂.

Thomas Bischoff
I take one of the free front seats!

Holger Kranich
Ok? Das ist sehr gut! Und Du hast Recht - Wer die Stranrear schafft, kann auch allein die Gorch Fock segeln. !😉

Gordon Sørensen
Looking forward to seeing your progress, Bernhard!

Martin Oostrom
I should have known you'd build it someday. She's got yellow wings!

Bernhard Schrock
The spruces are molded in yellow and in my opinion it's the most awful color for the plastic except maybe white. Every time I ask myself why? Revell should know they are selling modeling kits and not toys. Because of that I sprayed first a base coat of yellowish grey (3/4 light grey semimatt and 1/4 yellow matt).

Wim van der Luijt
Is the kitchen still open? I would like to join....

Hanno Kleinecke
Ich nehm' die Kalbshaxe Florida a'la Bérnard 😄 ! Passt auch gut zum Gelb.....
Great detailwork on the elevator hinges
What made the two white stripes on the cowl necessary, filling some channels ?

Bernhard Schrock
You are welcome: today we offer a three course Menu and recommended Chateau Modellier 2018🙂
THX for your nice comments Mates! Great happiness: three hours later and the base coat is dry (old Humbrols!!!).
Hanno: the white stripes are restored reinforcement of the panels. Unfortunately the fit was not the best and it was impossible to save the raised edges of the panels.

Bernhard Schrock
Yesterday I introduced a new painting philosophy: paint first and then look in the instructions sheet if it is correct. Unfortunately it doesn't work🙁 🙂 I airbrushed both sides of the upper wing instead of the upper side of the upper wing. I intend to leave this as it is because in my opinion it's impossible to remove the red paint without a mess.

Daniel Klink
Fantastic work Bernhard

Marcel Klemmer
Who needs instruction sheets? 🙂 In addition they are blocking the creativity...fantastic result so far.

bughunter
Great solution with the struts! What do you use for the etched nickel silver struts? RB Production?

Roberto Rocat
Beautiful Navy bird. Great progress.

Bernhard Schrock
Thx Mates. I'm happy to hear that you like my Yellowwing🙂. The wiring are from BS&TG models🙂. Thomas Gatermann and I created the sheet about 2003 or so. After building Tamiya Swordfish I asked myself for an solution for other biplanes and created self an artwork with different sizes and lengths. Thomas Gatermann managed the etching task. See for my SBC and Stranraer: in both cases I use my own wiring. In the Stran Album the first picture show the etched sheet.

Alexander Grivonev
immaculate build as always!

Olivier
Impressive job!

Jean Pierre CULIS-FERY
Whaou! very nice job.

Hoodlum90
nice!

Spanjaard
looking good as always Bernhard

bughunter
Always such walk around pictures added to the build reports. Crazy 👍

Gordon Sørensen
Fantastic attention to detail, Bernhard! Looks great!

Roberto Rocat
Amazing detail work makes it look real!

Bernhard Schrock
The propeller tries to look like it is made of wood🙂 (a little bit of brown paint and fine brush). By the way; thank you for feedback.

Daniel Klink
Fantastic result with the prop Bernhard 👍

MoJo
ups, fast übersehen sieht klasse aus 👍

Hanno Kleinecke
Stunning wood effect !

Ben M
Very very very nice. Watching. I always loved Steadman trainers too, lots at airshows when I was a kid.

Gordon Sørensen
The prop looks great, Bernhard!

Ben M
You should teach a workshop on painting propellers. I would seriously take it.

Bernhard Schrock
Rigging made of etched flat wires completed

Bernhard Schrock
One of the most difficult tasks on "modern" biplanes are the spread bars because all flat wires pass THROUGH the spreadbars

Jean Pierre CULIS-FERY
Fabuleux.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Awesome details and a wonderful, amazing outcome in the making!

Burkhard D
Some great ideas and skills to learn here 🙂

Stefan Schacht
hallo Bernhard, this is a very nice project again 🙂 Cheers Stefan

Daniel Klink
Looks good Bernhard. Fantastic explanations as well 👍

Roberto Rocat
...fantastic work...

Wim van der Luijt
great work on the stearman and thank you for the tip on the spread bars!

Tom ...
Really beautiful!

Jean Pierre CULIS-FERY
The correct french expression when you see a build with this quality is:"Demain, je me remets au macramé!", i made a fantastic job and thank you for the explanations, i will try to use it.

Neuling
Very beautiful!

Marco Gallmann
Perfekt work 👍 congratulations

Alberto Michieletto
Fantastic and perfect work!

Vitor Costa
Amazing work! The rigging... wow! Perfectly done! Everything done by you right (the rigging parts)?

Björn Svedberg
That is a beautiful plane! Great work! 👍

Tom
Very, very nice, Bernhard!

Bernhard Pethe
I would like to get in there and start in the air. Very nice. 👍

Hanno Kleinecke
Beautiful yellow bird ! Masterly and delicate detailing, excellent result

Bernhard Schrock
Hi mates. Yesterday I enjoyed my finished bird and today enjoy your comments🙂.
Vitor: yes, the rigging is half my work (artwork, the other half / etching was done by Thomas Gatermann).
Bernhard: would you like to sit in the front or in the back?

Ben M
This build is inspirational! Thank you for sharing your work and advice.

Martin von Schreckenstein
stunning work

Bernhard Pethe
Bernhard: I sat in front one time. But no matter, it is a nice experience to fly with such a biplane over the land. 🙂

Erik Leijdens
Amazing work as always! Lovely aircraft too

Spanjaard
Another masterpiece in your collection!

bughunter
Pure piece of art, or result of a modeler with AMS😉 Very close to the original aircraft 👍
