To my fellow forum members,
This build is a difficult one at least for me as I’m attempting to do the markings of the Hien on the cover of the box. It seems to me that the camoflauge is critical in accuracy in this build.
Luckily for me, I will only be camoflaugeing one side only as I’m going to go with the clear side for the other half.
This build will also be featured in Gamera’s Japanese GB VII. For those of you like me that don’t get around the Forums that much and just hang out at the aircraft section, I urge you to take a look as there are some seriously interesting historical builds there!
I want to thank all FSM Forum Members for following my builds but most importantly, I want to thank M. Brindos and Model Maniac for highly recommending this kit to me. I personally think it’s an exciting kit to build. Why? Here’s why.
First off it‘s a Tamiya. Second, for a 1/48, it’s highly detailed almost to the point of a 1/32. Third, I love and am infatuated with clear fueselauges. Fourth, wow! A mask is included with this kit. Fifth, as challenging as the kit is to build, the paint scheme is tedious and meticulous at best. And sixth and finally, did I mentioned it is a Tamiya kit? lol!
Your friend, Toshi
Here’s the box art.
