ICM 72311 1/72 Ki-10-II Vintage Biplane

The ICM 72311 renders the Ki-10-II in 1/72 scale with faithful proportions and period surface detail. The model highlights the biplane silhouette and compact form that made this fighter notable in the years before large-scale monoplane dominance.

Historical Role and Features

Active in the late 1930s, the Ki-10-II illustrates the last strong era of biplane fighters in military aviation. This kit helps builders appreciate the structural and aerodynamic choices from that transitional period in aircraft design.

Construction Notes for Builders

Expect a build that rewards patience and steady hands; the smaller scale means trims and seams need careful attention. The kit is ideal for model fans who enjoy painting period liveries and adding fine rigging for display realism.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
Newcomers can attempt it, but the 1/72 scale and delicate parts make it more comfortable for modellers who have completed a few kits previously.
The kit provides accurate plastic details and decals; optional photoetched sets or fine rigging thread can enhance realism but are not required to complete a convincing model.
Acrylics or enamels in muted greens, browns and greys suit late 1930s Japanese military schemes; thin coats and masking yield the best finish at this scale.
