I have been busy building this aircraft. I am taking a break to play with CFS2 for a little bit before working on it again. Here is a sneak peek. UncleTgt is painting it and building scenery files for the campaign. Skylane is writing a campaign for this aircraft. Lots of work left to finish it.

Thanks for nice comments! UncleTgt is working hard in painting this aircraft. He will enjoy hearing your comments on his paint schemes.

Here is a new Japanese pilot that will be included with this aircraft.

This is one of UncleTgt's paint scheme.

Looking forward to this one; my favorite Japanese fighter. AcWai building them and Uncle Tgt painting them; what a great team. Thank you.

I hope that the Ki-100 will follow as the currently available version has many problems with mirrored textures as well as different scaling of those textures. If not, then I will thoroughly enjoy this one! It's looking great!

Check out Allen's ki-100's in the Library. Pretty sure he de-mirrored the textures. You must be referring to a much older model.

There will be five versions. They are: Ki-61, Ki-61-II Early, Ki-61-II Late (bubble canopy), Ki-100-I Ko, and Ki-100-I Otsu.

Thanks, will have a look. The original textures were not only mirrored, but also scaled differently on the mirrored side. The number "177" originally appeared backwards and larger on the mirrored side.
 
This looks awesome! :redfire:

Excellent! Will she come with various skins covering the different theaters (PNG, Rabaul, Philippines, Formosa, Japan Homeland, etc.)? :engel016:

Thanks for all the comments from everyone and the interests in this aircraft. We are still making modifications to the aircraft. It also needs new airfile for all the different models.

It is hard to keep track of all five versions and the associated paint schemes. Every time you change something, you have to change it for over 25 paint schemes.

Here is what the Ki-61 Hien looks like. All the gauges have been built.

Why? It's not like anyone will create some new missions or campaigns using them, is it ... :monkey::a1310:
 
Wow that be purty. I got the Aerosim k-61 along with a slew of other Japanese fighters and up until now they had the best cockpits to be had. This is clearly going to be superior to those payware planes.
