Hello everyone. This is
the 1/48 Tamiya kit. The model was built out of the box, except that I added
photoetched seatbelts. And the cannons were replaced for hypodermic needles.

This is an old kit and I
had some troubles filling some gaps, especially the ones between wings
and fuselage. This was the first time I made a Japanese airplane and I was
a bit afraid on how I was going to do the paint job. I used Model Master and
Tamiya paints to finish this one. I used the post-shading technique to give the
model a weary looking paint effect, but not too much.
The chipping was made using a small
brush with Tamiya Aluminium. Decals were difficult to set in place but finally
got it using Solvaset. Thanks for looking!
Franz Galli
