Japanese Willow Type 93 1/32

[javlin]

I started on this kit now that I am in the trailing ends of the Graf Spee.The rigging there sometimes has to be done 3-4 times to get it right for me so something to relieve the stress and anxiety.So,out comes the Willow it's a beautiful frame and color(floatplane).I intend for the most part to be OOB but I am adding a trim wheel and cable lines here and there probably all fictional for few pictures exist about the web.The alerions,rudder and tailplanes will all be removed to represent the placement of the sticks and rudders in the pit.This is to be a relaxing and fun build and after this one the Me-280 will be next always wanted to do that one.Cheers

Nice one Kevin - and you shouldn't have any trouble with lost parts, they're so bright!!

[JohnAnthony]

It states Entex Industries,Inc.,Carson California.Made in Japan nothing more than that Wayne.I saw a build of one over at LSP in the flaotplane scheme and it was really nice.

Thought I'd seen the trade mark somewhere before - had an Entex Phantom in 1/48th about 30 years ago.

It makes you wonder if someone like Tamiya or Hasegawa had the moulds and Entex slapped on there label.I for some reason upon seeing there trademark thought Aussie??

Nice one Kevin, think you'll need your sunnies on when looking at it though.....

I know a company called Doyusha in Japan did both versions at one time maybe it is originally from them?

Sure I have some nice profiles of the Willow....will see where they are...

I have there George in 1/32 and the pit on that one is a joke but I have seen guys do a total rebuild of it.

Very interesting. I agree with Terry, you parts should be very easy to see if you drop one. Can't wait to see it done.

You guys are right about that one but that's why I have hardwood floors in the shop and do you know I am still loosing sh!t.All though not as much as the carpet monster but still Also Wayne I think this model does not have the first locating pin no big deal just got to be careful might even be an aid in the end.We will find out.Cheers
