Mitsubishi KI-15 Babs

[phantom II]

Thanks all for the positive remarks . Not many builders take an interest in the smaller builds.

However, where would you find a KI-15 in 1/32 ? Maybe in 1/48 but, frankly a lot of lesser known subjects are still not being marketed in larger scales.
Thanks Matrix I find your comments encouraging since the popular ones have been built years ago. I find these off the road warriors more relaxing. Shame research material is still hard to come by.

Cheers, Christian B)

Hey Christian, I'like it...
nice buid, the only think that could change, it's the background
on green make a little "camouflaged watch", i think in white backgroun will be better!

Cheers! :drinks

I bid on one of these 2 years ago on evilBay... dropped out when the bid went over $25... I think it finally sold for $85-90...

Ya gotta love obscure planes!

Hi Barney. I'm really surprised as I had even forgotten this one being in the cave. I don't remember them being so high on Ebay and they seem to have them listed fairly often. Hasegawa or Mania ( same kit).LS also has their own version which is probably not as good . A little jewel...Don't know why it seems to be so obscured.
Things change as I remember the Airfix Duck being listed in Rare plane detective for $ 52 now some are on Ebay for $ 5 & 6. I though I was sitting on a tresure.

Cheers, Christian B)

Thank you all for your encouraging comments . I was in such a hurry to get back to the Mitchell I did not post any pictures from the Bottom side.
Guess I'll bore you with a couple more family shots.

Joe, it's not too late till the pictures disappear from the internet

Cheers, Christian B)

Very nice to see something other than another Me 262, P-51, or Bf 109!

Hey Les, you forgot FW 190's !!!!!!

Cool build Christian

Looking real good!

If I see another -109 that was flown by XYZ I am going to scream...

I was looking on Wings the other day, did you know that 31 air forces flew the F-86 in one version or another? Let's go unusual!
