A-bomb specials
When I ordered this kit to Amazon, I was thinking that the usual box painting kit, which depicts the air battle with Mig 15 at the time of the Korean War, will arrive, but I was surprised to see the kit that arrived. It is not the above picture in box painting, is not B - 29 "Enola · Gay" issue dropping the atomic bomb in Hiroshima depicted as decadeca? Apparently the contents of the box and the decal seem to have changed while I did not know. What can be produced with this kit belongs to 6 BG depicting "Enola · Gay" issue dropped the atomic bomb in Hiroshima and "Box · Car" dropped atomic bomb in Nagasaki, and pirate troops mark (not nose art) Three kinds of normal bomber type, this time it is content which focused more on atomic bomb dropping machines this time. By the way, please note that the aircraft (Korean war specification) of the finished product sample that Amazon is uploading can not be made with this kit. Although attention is drawn to instructions in production instructions, let's be careful as there are differences in the presence or absence of a turret, propeller type, etc. for atomic bomb dropping machines and regular bomber types. Instruction instructions are a little confusing. Also, although the kit contains two types of Hamilton propeller (part 54) and Curtis propeller (part 120), the general bomber type is equipped with Hamilton propeller, the Curtis propeller is a part of Because it is staying in the equipment of the aircraft, attention is needed when finishing with optional decal. B-29 is an airplane that once flew Japanese cities as dust and civilians alone deprived the lives of 570,000 people, but an airplane with an image of minus was actually ordered Curtis · It is Major General Rumay and it was President Truman who ordered the dropping of the atomic bomb. Do not forget that B-29 is only one of the many tools used in war all the time.




Made with Zero Battle
Since 1/48 scale is only made at this level, it is an extremely difficult item. Although it is an impression of the kit, it is written in the model making blog of the net and other reviews "Part matching is bad and struggling", but it was not personally like that. Of course, it is inferior compared to domestic Hasegaya and Tamiya, but it felt very good compared with early fine mold (1/48 comet) etc. It is personal impression to the last. Because it is likely that the product that had been in stock for a long time is deformed, I think there are individual differences. Masking was easy because the window was large. It takes a lot of time because it has a lot of time. The interior of the cockpit is well reproduced, but if you close it you can hardly see the inside. It might be a good idea to make it a cut model because it is kind of cumbersome.




Hamilton · standard propeller is included as an additional part
The package arrived at the original box of Monogram trademark at the time of monogram · brand. Actually, this kit has multiple possessions, the ones at hand are those of Hasegawa's package which is an agency, only here was the electric variable pitch propeller of Curtis, which was first released from the monogram in 1977 It was contents of the remaining parts composition. This time, I learned that additional parts are attached in the review of the other person, it is quickly it is. It is expensive, but I think that it is better than resin parts. It is like a parts purpose, but you can make B-29 of Jolly Rogers paint with this. The attached decals were different from the photos of the completed Korean war version on this page, so be careful if you are interested. Although the separately sold decals were also quite a few years ago, several kinds were released, so you may find it if you look for it often. Although it becomes quite a size, it is still a little smaller than the B - 36 of the 1/72 scale of the company (laugh) You can enjoy models as well when it is about this. Appendix; Apparently each part of this product seems to have been shaped and processed in China, presumably the maintenance of the mold was done in advance, 'The condition is better than the time of the things made in the US purchased around the early 90' s think. In addition, although the quality of the decal has become a terrible thing in the low price kit etc for the Christmas sales war, etc., this product did not have such anxiety.




Great!
In the meantime, while continuing to make bombers, as a Japanese after Lancaster, this aircraft that is synonymous with a bomber is said to be. It takes a lot of work to finish it, but looking at the state with a hypothesis is still big. It is powerful victory. I myself do not know the war, as a machine I am possessed by the charm of a fighter aircraft, and I am taking a model as a hobby, but at such a review place, "just a kit that reproduced the aircraft" is just a machine What kind of thinking do you say? If the bereaved family got it, in a well-made straw figure ....
