Great project, what's the plan for the interior?

Mona

Great Job! Looks for me like DIY dressed skin?

Mr D
Very 👍👍 nice.
The Rising sun decals look painted on and looks good. Nice job, lm yet to build a WW2 Japanese fighter.
Antenna is good too.....is it thread or stretch spru ??

Guy Rump
Lovely job! 👍

Weizenbrot
Thank you Marcin!

Weizenbrot
Thank you Bernhard. Yes it is, I will upload some more pictures for the process.

Weizenbrot
Hi Mr D. Haha they are painted on. I tried to use as less decals as possible except somethings like the Japanese "No Step" which is too complicated for me XD. The Antenna is 0.05 mm copper wire.

Weizenbrot
Thank you Guy!

Marcin Terlikowski
I finished exactly the same one few weeks ago. What color is on fuselage?

Weizenbrot
Hi Marcin. It was Mr. Hobby's Kawasaki Green for base. For highlight I added some yellow and white. For shadow I added Japanese propeller or any brown in red tone will work.

Like it 👍👍👍

John
Great result and attention to detail. Riveting job, chipping and paintjob, all top-notch 👍

BetterTimes-Henry
Great start. Watching.

Mr D
Nice choice of kit, like the way your clock's/ instruments have turned out.
Was each clock individual??
Good stuff, my next kit is a Tamiya, was good quality.
Thanks for uploading 👍👍

John
Thanks Mr D. You can't go wrong with a Tamiya, at least in terms of fit. Sometimes their details get simplified and supposedly a few kits have accuracy issues, but for assembly they are great. Had to do this one after the A-20G since it was so painfully fussy to fit together. This is a nice change!

I thought about punching out each instrument individually but it's so small it would have driven me mad. Fortunately, the decal is sized perfectly to the panel so if you align it carefully, it turns out fine.

This kit doesn't specifically say it, but you can do both open and closed engine panel. Since the engine fits with pins and poly caps, you can change them out, which I intend to do. It's a nice touch and the kit is fairly cheap. Pick one up if you haven't already.

I agree,after a frustrating build. You can go to a Tamiya kit and get back to what the hobby is about. . . Enjoyment, satisfaction, reasonable accuracy and a decent finish. Good interior John, looks like the 162 is on track as I would expect from your good self. 🤘🥸🤟🥸👍

Mr D
Brilliant thanks for the Advice John..😃👍👍. Appreciate it.
Good luck with rest of build ...nice subject 👌

Doubtingmango
Fantastic work on the instruments! Nothing like a nice Tamiya kit to keep the blood pressure down to acceptable levels
