discussion Hasegawa 1/72 N1K2-J Shiden Kai

[Guest]

Hi All,


Here are the pictures of my finished Hasegawa 1/72 N1K2-J Shiden Kai.


I did it with the landing gear up as it is going to be hung from my youngest sons ceiling.


It was painted with Vallejo paints and I used Kopro decals (which were a nightmare)!


I managed to knock off the aerial which is why there isn't one.


The build thread can be found here:

Thanks for looking.


Regards


David

Thanks for the positive comments everyone.

I'm not sure what is coming next! I've got a Mustang III and a Stug to finish. I just wish I could build as fast as I buy.

That looks great David, I like how you've accented individual panels on the underside.

Isn't it typical? You wait ages for an excellent Japanese aircraft build & then 2 come along at once!
