Hi,
your Lily is very accurate and clean built! Beau boulot, chouette! I like it!
If I`m right it must be the 34. Sentai, isn`t it?

Thanks for your comments
Dirk, you're probably right. As I made this kit 4 years ago, I don't remember now the unit of this plane. I do remember that the marking on the tail should be white and not yellow: I destroyed the yellow one while attempting to put it on the plane

Nicely done! You did a good job, I like the preshading- and the clean masking of the windows...

Thank you!

Just to be precise, I used post-shading for the camo scheme. The windows were masked with thin strips of Tamiya tape filled with a Maskol-like

Oh, I see... that sounds even more complex than cutting out solid window-sized Tamiya tape squares, but it obviously worked very well!

Well, it depend to your hability to cut the tape without gouging the window in the process. As my attemps were rather disstrous, I now using this method, maybe more time-consuming, but more fool-proof.

Of course, the simplest way is to use Eduard masks... If available!

Fool-proof? That sounds like something that should fit to me 😮)
I will give it a try the next time I am working on a small-scale "glasshouse" without having the comfort of a Eduard masking sheet. Inspiring... thank you!

Album info

Here are a few pictures of the Ki-48 I completed nearly 4 years ago.

Even if the kit is quite old, it was s still fun to build, and I don't recall having any problem building it
