Insignia with a white border for the Ki-44 Shoki in 1:72 scale

A masking set from Dead Design meant for spraying the Japanese national insignia onto a model of the Nakajima Ki-44 Shoki in 1:72 scale. The name specifies the rendition with a white border. The package holds masking, not the plastic parts of the aircraft.

An interceptor over the home islands

The Ki-44 was created as the opposite of the Japanese school of agile fighters of the time. Nakajima designed it around a powerful radial engine with the emphasis on climb and speed, which called for a small wing and a high landing speed: pilots used to light types had to get used to it. That is exactly why it proved itself in the defense of Japanese airspace, where a fast climb to the bombers was what was needed. Home defense machines in dark camouflage were usually marked with an insignia with a white outline, so that the disc would be clear.

The exact placing of the insignia

Check the symmetry of the discs on the model before you press a mask down for good. Measure the distance from the wingtip and from the leading edge on both halves and mark it in pencil; in this scale the eye reliably picks up a deviation of one millimeter, especially when looking down from above. On the fuselage go by the panel joints, not by an estimate from the cockpit.

  • Measure the spacing of the insignia on each wing half separately.
  • Make your marks with a soft pencil, not with a ballpoint pen.
  • Spray the white base with an overlap beyond the future red.
  • Remove dust with a soft brush before spraying, not by blowing.

FAQ

Because of the small wing and the high wing loading it touched down faster than pilots of Japanese light fighters were used to.

Measure the distance from the wingtip and from the leading edge on both sides and mark the points lightly with a soft pencil.

Yes, but count on two sprayings in a row. Working with a mask is slower than a decal, but the result lasts better.
