Greetings Fly-n-hi and Mike, thanks very much.
regards,
Jack
Small parts quality control notwithstanding, you've demonstrated that it was not to deter you from building a great looking model from the kit!
I think it would qualify for the same kudos were it 1/48 scale, but 1/72? Outstanding.

Great work! The weathering is really convincing!

Hi Max, thanks very much.
Hey Jack. Excellent work, photography and presentation!
Max
Thank you keavdog, tempestjohnny, plasticjunky, and Joe Rix - glad you all enjoyed this one.
About the tail markings, it could be they are parallel to the ground, but possibly alligned vertically with the side of the rudder.
That is an immensely stunning build Jack. Really impressive paint work and weathering. Top notch my friend.

Well looks like all the issues you had were conquered and a fine looking model was created.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
Very nice - love the first pic! I really dig the low wing open cockpit planes.
Thanks,
John

Chris, Andy, Nick, and Mark - thanks very much guys.
Yes, all Hinomaru markings, fuselage stripes, the red tail, and the red strips on the trailing wing edge were masked and sprayed.
Simply beautiful. Well done!
Cheers, Mark

Thank you roony and UnwaryPaladin.
Except for a few bits and pieces, I don't think a single intact Claude survived the war.
Beautiful! Taking a rough kit and making it look like that really says a lot about your skill. The weathering looks great.
Great build. Nice to see an early war aircraft. An over looked subject. But than there not many of them left to be copied by the modelling companys.
Greatmaker, thank you kindly.
Beautiful build and stunning photography. Thank You for sharing
This is a 1/72nd scale kit from AVImodels. Being released late last year, it was a bit disappointing to see a modern kit brought to the market with poor quality control with regards to it's moldings, particularly the smaller parts. Anyhow, here she is ...
The markings on this Claude are of IJN ace Tetsuzo Iwamoto during operations over China. One of the top aces from Japan, he would score 14 during this period.
