About product

ALU inspection covers for the Kawasaki Ki-61-I Hien, 1:32 scale

An accessory from Dead Design for the plastic model of the Ki-61-I Hien. It takes care of the inspection covers, the lids of the service openings on the airframe, which on the real machine usually stood out from the surrounding surface in both shade and sheen. The ALU designation in the name refers to a version with an aluminum, metallic-looking finish, that is, an alternative to the basic version of the set. The parts are cut to the shape and spacing that match this type, so nothing has to be measured out or cut by hand. It is not a kit, and these are not decals either.

When to reach for the ALU version

A metallic look for the inspection covers suits cases where you want to break up the surface of an aircraft with a subtle contrast without having to touch it with paint. Thanks to its liquid-cooled V engine the Ki-61 had a slender, smooth airframe on which large uniform areas quickly look dead. It is precisely in 1:32 scale that fine variety in the surface pays off most, because the model is large and a viewer will come up close.

How to work with it

  • The surface has to be finished, smooth and degreased; on a rough finish a metallic look will never come out even.
  • Lay the elements on with tweezers and check the position against the other side of the airframe, so that the model is symmetrical.
  • Press the edges down with a soft wooden stick or a cotton bud so that no edge stands proud anywhere.
  • Metallic surfaces are easily dulled by a fingerprint, so handle the model with gloves on.
  • Keep the weathering restrained: an overdone wash will reliably kill the metallic look.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of large scales who work with subtle contrast across a surface.
  • Modelers who want a metallic detail without masking and spraying.
  • Those building a Hien who want the inspection covers even and repeatable.

This is an accessory for a plastic model, not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

According to the designation in the name, this is a version with an aluminum, metallic-looking finish. The manufacturer does not give an exact comparison of the two versions in the name.

It is not. It is an accessory for a model, which has to be bought separately.

The point of the ALU version is a metallic look without spraying. Even so, always try it first on a piece of spare plastic to see how it looks on your own finish.

Metallic-looking surfaces are sensitive to fingerprints and to rough handling, so handle the model with gloves on and weather it sparingly.
