BANZAI!!!!!!!!!!
finally a working vsi
@Lake I'm using gimp to make letters and use IA image importer to import images into labels
How did you made the Japanese letters at the fuselage?
Fun fact: It was the most agile and fastest warplane of the early stages of ww2
@hadum I haven't decided on a build yet.
@Alisuchanka I would rate....... 15/15.
Would you mind Telling me what your next upcoming build is??? or Is it a Secret :]
The details are fantastic!
@Alisuchanka np
@WinsWings @xNotDumb Thank you!
Kool!
@winswings you're right ! That canopy is cool. Look at it open back and forth and imagine it was rotated 180 degrees and the plane was facing the other way and the part of the canopy that doesn't move is removed. See it ? So it would slide back toward the pilot. God this is a cool design !
@WinsWings KK
Details are amazing. Love that open and close canopy switch. @zaineman try this
Babe, babe, look, alisuchanka uploaded.
