This was a fun build and went together rather quick out of the box . I did use a set of RP production set beats . It's pretty desent kit and the fit was good , didn't have to use any filler on this . few areas with a bit of sanding .

Interesting to see a pointy nose Japanese fighter rather than a radial. Looks good.

Lovely build of one of My Favorite Japanese WW2 fighters! The Hasegawa kit is an Improvement over the Revelle Tony I built and converted into Multiple versions years ago! Very well done Alexis!

Those WW2 japanese fighters are so pretty with colourful schemes and flaking paint (on some) I'd almost be tempted to have a go at one . . .

Very nice work, the metal finish looks great.

That turned out very well indeed, with some subtle weathering adding that looks very realistic.
Cheers,

I like the WW2 Japanese fighters and you have pulled this one off beautifully, Alexis.

Good to see you back too.

I've long had a soft spot for the Tony - I've even stood on one! - and I'm always equal parts delighted (pretty!) and worried (for my wallet) whenever I see such a beautiful example.

Nice one, Alexis. But how about a Pfalz for the next project? 😉

Sorry Alexis but I missed this one as I do not call in here often.

That is a superb NMF on the Ki - 61, the more so as the scale is so large and it is easy to get this wrong in my experience. An interesting subject too - although I admit I know little about Japanese WW2 types.

Thanks Stephen , NMF is an art form , Like yourself I don't know much about this type of aircraft but she has some sexy lines to her .
