This German small interested attracted my little 6 years old daughter. She asked me why this plane had three wings, how fast this was, where she could get on this plane... I could not answer her questions perfectly, but I make a promise wi…

Cool! Embraer 314 is the newest Brazilian turboprop attacker. The assembling of this plane is not difficult. I recommend to make this aircraft.

Mostly completed. Assembling a monoplane is much easier than doing a biplane...I think. The propeller of this plane has 5 blades. This propeller makes the looking of this plane so strong. The number of landing gears is 3... 1 front gear & …

It is very sensitive work to assemble the main body, side boards. The symmetrical position must be set by myself. After some trying and errors, the symmetric position could finally be set. Looking so cool! The end edges of horizontal stabi…

This work was the first attack for me. In this case, I decorated some military-like colors on fuselage and wings with not stickers but acrylic pens. I refer to Chile Air Force to decide this coloring. A small white star on a vertical stabi…

One of the most joyful worries in making airplane models is the decision of its color. Since, the Embraer 314 is used in a lot of countries, there are a number of color valuations all over the world. After short thinking, I decided the col…

After making some traditional biplanes, I was attracted by the shape of this Brazilian modern turboprop airplane and going to make its model. The Embraer 314 is a turboprop single-engine light attack aircraft based on the 312, developed by…

Done!!! I really enjoyed to make this model. It's beautiful main body line, stickers of Eisernes Kreuz, the color contrast of a red fuselage & green wings... all experience of expression of this small fighter is

Here, we have come to yhe final stage. Firstly, an upper main wing is set in supports with some tention liners. This work needs much concentration to set the upper wing at the symmetrical position. I marked two black points on the back of …

It was a hard work for me to setting supports on lower wings. Sometimes, symmetrical positioning of parts is very difficult making because of my a little bit poor assembling ability. Right & left wings and supports could be made in slightl…

After making the side body, I assessed the lower wings. It is the most important point that left & right lower wings are installed symmetrically. Jigs should be helpful to set symmetrical wings, so these fixtures are strongly recommended t…

Carefully cutting out parts. I wonder whether or not the moss green coloring if main wings could be dark? Always, it is very difficult to mix several colors to be suitable tone. The color of white could be necessary. Painting the edges of …

It was a hard mission for me! Manfred's fighter had a red main body and moss green main wings. Therefore, I had to paint them with 2colors at the same time. That was my first challenge, but the pleasure of finishing this work was very big …

When I saw the beautiful shape of the main body of Albatros D.III, I couldn't control my urge to make its model. Therefore, I decided to make it. I think the beautiful body of this plane will fascinate everyone. How about you? Firstly, I m…

Now, let's make a training flight! The trainer aircraft Type 93 has been completed. I think that the characteristics of the actual Type 93 have been expressed , but what about?Biplanes have a complicated structure, but the feeling of makin…

Assembling a propeller, an engine, main landing gears and a tail wheel.As same as Nieuport 28, a propeller and an engine are made of a balsa wood bar. This propeller is delivered by Betafpf Co, same as Nieuport 28. The structure of main la…

Putting the upper main wing on the struts of lower wings. Bracing wires, which are expressed by cut a sheet of styrene whose width is 4mm, are colored with a black water-based acrylic pen. However, due to the production of the model, the w…

Firstly, I assembled the main body and reinforced the interior with stiffeners whose width are 5mm. The side plate of this body seems a little bit small, but its length is enough for installing a lower wing..., I calculated its specificati…

Inking the body. Since this airplane is a primitive trainer biplane, there are a lot of panel lines and it took long time for inking. At this actual airplane, the engine cover is painted black color. Therefore, I decided to paint the engin…

Accurately cutting out parts from a sheet of styrene with a cutter.The lower main wing is divided in the middle, so this wing becomes two parts. The upper main wing, however, is cut out as a single item. Since this plane is a trainer, I pa…

As the next model, I chose Kawanishi Type93 K5Y1. I wanted to make a bright-colored airplane, so I decided to choose a type 93 intermediate training aircraft.The production of Kawanishi K5Y1 intermediate training aircraft began production …

Nieuport 28 has been completed! Before I made it, I was worried that the blue color would not match to this airplane, but the dark blue color looks good on the Nieuport 28's smart body. After this experience, I become interested in biplane…

Here we have come to the final step! Let's make front wheels and a tail support. Observing carefully front wheels of the actual Nieuport 28, the shafts of front wheels are structured as a truss. In this model, this truss is made by several…

The propeller spinner and the body of engine were made with a bar made of balsa wood which diameter is 10mm. To make a spinner, firstly, the bar is sharpened as approximate shape with a pencil sharpener. Then, shaping it with sandpaper. Th…

Installing the horizontal stabilizers.About an actual Nieuport 28, its horizontal stabilizers are supported by diagonal bracing bars. In this modeling, I made diagonal bracing materials, whose width are 3mm, to support the horizontal stabi…

Before assembling the upper main wings, let's make the posts for upper parts. There was a cut-off piece left when I made Mitsubishi Ki-46 'Dinah,' before. I use this piece, because its color looks like wood, which could be thought to be th…

Starting to assemble parts!First, assembling the central main body. In this case, using 5 cm size square wood of cypress, I assembled the body for parts to be perpendicular to each other. For this assembly, Konishi's "Ultra Versatile", whi…

Make a sticker to decorate the aircraft.Stickers are made with a sheet of ordinary paper painted with acrylic paint. After painting them, cut out to fit the shape of parts. These stickers could be better to be inked as much as possible. At…

As the parts dry, they may warp like this picture. But don't touch them! Turn them over and let them be.Once these parts dry completely, they should return to flat surface by themselves.Well, it's completely dry. Molding each part.When mol…

Painting parts cut out. In this case, I decided it’s color blue, inspired by the 213th Squadron of the US Army. See: WINGS PALETTE http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww1/f/760/3/0/10 Using water-based acrylic paint TAMIYA X-4, and dilute it with water to…
