Great start and cockpit. I am a big fan of the Tamiya kits from this era. A very fun "canvas" to play with for detailing and painting. They still hold up compared to modern tooling if done right.

Thanks John and Mark. The cockpit is excellent just OOB, considering the year this tool was released. And the kit is still pretty inexpensive these days.

Mine did, when I applied the VMS Gloss on the Shiden, prior to decalling. Did lose a bit of subtly, but not much. Looking good so far Alberto.

Thanks Mark. It's tricky to guess when's the right time to stop the blending without loosing the pre-shading once the model is finished 😄

That's exactly my experience Alberto. The line between too much and not enough is very thin for sure. I've noticed that's especially true with darker colors like olive drabs or the IJN green like here. In those cases, some post shading with some lighter versions of the base color might be necessary to restore some of the tonal variation. Looking good 👍

Gloss coat and decals applied. Now ready for a bit of weathering.

Some weathering added and matt coat to seal it, it's ready now for final assembly

Chapeau Alberto! Great Zeke! Your blog gave me some good impressions for my builds of Japanese aircraft.
