Fand 2 from yukikaze (prototype)

[seth crofton]

Hello you all,

I have been seraching online for something cool to design and build and remembered of 'course yukikaze. So i tried one out the fand 2 do to its complications and great wing structures(glides very fast with a paperclip in the nose). Let me know what you think as I am refining it. I have a jpeg of the parts and pieces so go ahead an try one for your own. I am not great at instructions ( too wordy I am told) will work on the fand 1 but I am still looking for a top view of it.

all parts out of an 8 by 11 piece of paper.

Jeez, that's tiny! Excellent build! :thumb:

So how well does it glide?

Your pics of the built model, and the color pics came out fine but your line drawing is washed out. Would there be a chance you might be able to darken it up and repost it? Very cool plane though, what is that thing from?

 

[seth crofton]

thanks guys,
millennium falshood i got about a 10 foot glide out of it in my living room, as you can see it does have some wing area. I am in the process of improving some of the fits to the shapes of the structures but yeah i like to build them small.

Itla900311 the plane is from the yukikaze anime series and after i get done making some corrections to the original parts sheet i will make sure its darker. I am not a fan of lines myself so I try to lighten them. I mainly color my pieces with prisma color pencils.

any other good yukikaze planes there?

if not 4 d storyline, its a nice anime though.

You know Seth, I have a full set of Prismacolor pencils packed away in my "art box". I've thought about coloring some of the stuff I've downloaded with them. The only problems are:
1. They are expensive, for me at least.
2. I only like to use them for portraits and things like that.

But you know, they aren,t getting any younger, and neither am I! So time to break out the pencils! Thanks for the inspiration!:thumb: I am looking forward to your parts improvement, and leave the lines the way they are. A very good idea with the colored pencils!

thanks, thought i lost this.

ahm ever tried to print it on a3 paper and see if there would be quality problems?

also instructions?

 

[ltla9000311]

Max, would it be possible to have a full size copy of that model in your last post? Very very cool!

 

[seth crofton]

okay guys double checked the parts from a second build and the only adjustments to make are to shorten the fuselage to fit.I chopped off aobut a quarter of an inch (k) and (B) I orginally desiged this for myself with as few tabs as possible so i did not add them to one of the pods. However they were quite helpful (due to small size) so mirror the tabs on the left pod to the right. other then that I plan on making missles for this size as well and here are a couple of pics.
