It's Cherry Blossom time..

Here are some pics of the Ohka that I have been working on. I still have to do some filling and sanding. It is my first attempt at doing some scratch building.

I would like to thank 3 modelers that have helped me with this. So a big thanks to Swanny for his help and his site, to Pixilater for his help in finding the pics I needed and to Mel Sharkskin for his support and advice.[tup][tup][tup]

Let me know what you all think. Oh, there is no panel as I am not that good yet.[sigh]

Gonna be a good looking Ohka. Nice work so far.

Regards, Rick

from what I could see, nice looking interior… think this build is gonna turn out nice! looking forward to more…

Good looking work, Missle!

That interior looks tantalizing.

Rick, Tom, Jon and Swanny,

Thanks for the kind words. I hope the completed Baca Bomb looks half as good as Swanny’s.

I tried some scratch building on the interior. I had to add a floor and then a joystick. I was lucky in that I had bought different sizes of styrene tubing and sheets. Oh, and I had to drill holes in the seat. (I found a picture of a seat that looked like it was made of brass and had several holes in it. Didn’t look comfortable, but I guess comfort is out on a one way plane.)
