Kawanishi K-2 racer

Peter,Barry,

I show another technique.
A few brass lines are soldered and thin strut is made. The width of strut is adjusted by the number of brass lines.
Strut of the width of 3mm is made in 6 brass lines of 0.5mm.

Very useful for types such as the Fokker D.7/D.8 etc Kenji,or any aircraft that has a centre mounted flying strut with aerofoil,excellent keep them coming.

I made the axle,tires and struts.
I bury tires' gaps with the Polyester putty.

Barry,Lou,

Using polyester putty.
After the patty dries,I rasped the surface smooth.

Kenji your model of the K-2 has come on leaps and bounds,it looks very similar to my own rendering ! probably the only two models of this rare racer in the whole world ?
Barry.

Kenji, I love your work.

Lou

[Balsabasher]

And me as well,the detail on the propeller and wheels is spot on.

Lou,Barry,

Because they cannot watch a real plane, these two models are precious.
I make a square radiator from now on.

[Balsabasher]

That is so true Kenji,we can reproduce any airplane from any period in aviation history,bravo.
Barry.

Barry,

I think so, too.
It is the real pleasure of solid model.
