The starting point for this project.

Some accessories are used.

Fuselage too long?
6
February 13, 2023
Wings too wide?
7
February 13, 2023
No, the drawings are too small. 2 mm missing in width.

First dry fit.

Poor interior details in the cockpit and lots of ugly ejector marks. This is where Eduard's etched parts come in handy.
10
February 17, 2023
All details on the sidewalls removed.
11
February 26, 2023
The first etched parts are glued - everything is a very fragile matter.

March 20, 2023
More fiddly etched parts glued.

Mitsubishi Interior Green for the interior 😉

March 24, 2023
First dry fit with almost complete interior... most will disappear and never seen again after glueing.
15
March 26, 2023
The last parts of the interior have found their place.
16
March 26, 2023
Time for the last photo before all the splendor disappears between the glued fuselage halves.

Well Frank, since my vacation ends today, I had to hurry up with the painting - next week the time budget for model building will be significantly smaller again.

You are amazing. Next time I'll take your cue and make the circles with masks.

Yes, no decal can quite match the appearance of painted national insignia - even if the form is as simple as that of the Hinomarus... 👍

This Japanese metallic blue hurts the eyes. But that ain't your fault. Another beautiful build from your bench; and about time you change the teaser to a pic of you model instead of the historical pic. 🙂

After a great paint job a fantastic weathering! What paint do you use for this metallic scratches? And applied with a brush or sponge? I need to learn!
