FineMolds Nine seat fighter "Tachinu Wind" - Reveal

Post by shortCummins »

The 'final reveal' of my FineMolds "Tachinu Wind" kit.

This is a fantastic kit, at around £20 from Amazon (including postage from Japan) its also incredible value for money.
Here are the reveal photos, I hope you enjoy them as much as I have building her…

Great job. Love how the panel lines pop out and I'm glad to see you managed to sort out the problem you had with the primer on the tail fins. The plane looks superb! :thumb2:

I recently re-watched The Wind Rises. It's probably become one of my favourite Ghibli movies.

She has come out very nice indeed. The wash and paint finish look great :bow:: I always find I learn way more from a build when you have problems and they are much more rewarding when you come out the other side. Look forward to following more of your builds :cheers2:

thanks Thumboy, I agree about the 'learning though mistakes' and the 'boost' you get when you've solved whatever it is that went wrong. It one of the great things about this forum is that you get to see how others achieve whatever your trying to do, as well as the support and encouragement from fellows who understand :cheers2:
