Beautiful work, obiwan!

The "suspended" display of your picture is great also! That would be an excellent way of displaying an aircraft in a diorama, with prop/wheels made to appear they're in motion!

Hmmmm.... thanks for the picture AND an idea! Wink [;)]

Regards,
Frank

Hey, obiwan! That's a good looking plane! How about a close up of the interior and that gun sight? Oh, and did you drop the flaps yourself or was that part of the kit?

She's a real beauty Obiwan... I love the weathering, and your cockpit looks absolutely great. That rear gunner looks like he's actually straining to track an interceptor.

sorry for the super late reply.
I'm having the computer blues(I am still unable to access this from my pc)

Thanks AJACKETSFAN ,pareng delta dagger,pareng allan, hungfarlow
and Matt Usher.

AJACKETSFAN , the rear gunner is not stable so he is actualy tipping over.
plus there is no seat there to support him just a toothpick.
I never found out how to modify the seats for fighting position.
its only my good luck he looks ok.

pareng delta ,dynastic?

pareng allan ,I've tried Gunze 46 ,its excellent supeb drying time plus
such a smooth finish.great stuff , great stuff.

hungfarlow, (not related to william hung?),
the paint are all Gunze Mr Color.the green is 124 dark green (mitsubishi) and the brown is41 red brown , the wheel wells are 57 metalic blue green over silver and the
cockpit interior is 127 cockpit color (nakajima)hope this helps.
