Color three-dimensional cockpit elements from Quinta Studio in 1:48 scale for the Japanese Kawasaki Ki-61-I fighter. The elements are applied like a decal, with a brief dip in lukewarm water.
Responsibility details are not available.
The Kawasaki Ki-61 Hien differed from most Japanese fighters of its time in its powerplant: instead of a radial engine it received a liquid-cooled inverted V12, which gave it a slim fuselage recalling European designs. The Allies used the code name Tony for it. The designation Ki-61-I belongs to the first production series.
Three-dimensional color elements for the cockpit in 1:48 scale, carried on decal paper. The elements have a raised relief and a finished color print including legible instruments, so there is no painting of tiny dial faces and captions with a brush.
The elements of the QD range are applied like a decal. The part is cut from the sheet, dipped in lukewarm water for about fifteen seconds and slid off the decal paper into place; do not use a decal softener or a decal fixer, because the chemistry would attack the printed resin. The element has no adhesive layer of its own, so first paint the surface in the base interior shade, let it dry and give it a gloss coat of the Future, Klear or Tamiya X-22 type. Move the dipped element with tweezers or the tip of a knife, seat it in place and press it gently with a soft cotton swab from the center toward the edges. While it is still damp it can be shaped into the edges and recesses of the cockpit side walls; on complex spots a drop of super glue helps.
The set is aimed at modelers who want a well worked and legible cockpit under an open canopy but do not want to spend hours painting the instrument panel. The elements are shaped for a particular kit, so check that they match your model. The kit, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.
