Hasegawa 1/72 "Special Bomb" A-1H
Posted by jeaton01 on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 2:38 PM

Finished this one yesterday, it was like building a 1/48 kit in miniature, very nice.  Apparently they were short of explosives but had an extra commode?  Where was the Air Boss when this happened?  Carefully not looking, I bet.

 A few more pictures here and a build log here:

Beautiful build. Very clean.I especially like the exhaust weathering. Well done.
