I’m really becoming a big fan of your work and can’t wait for some updates in the other WIP’s. Keep up the great work, Chuck. Thanks Chuck! I'm trying to get some momentum on the other two builds and I'll be posting some updates soon! 17 hours ago, Miloslav1956 said: Excellent work! Thanks Miloslav! I appreciate it! 2 hours ago, Kagemusha said: Great to see it finished, though I thoroughly enjoyed the build, so much to enjoy; subject, markings, execution, and I don't think I've seen a better model. Thank you Kagemusha! One of my favorite movies, BTW! I'm a big Nakadai Tatsuya fan. It was a fun one! Mostly because the Tamiya kit is so well engineered that most of the things I normally associate with "modeling" such as trimming, sanding, filling and sanding were minimized and I was able to concentrate on other things for a change.

Uncarina Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Outstanding attention to detail, color, weathering, and authenticity! That belongs in a museum. You’ve shown just how good the Tamiya kit can become. Cheers, Tom Thunnus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tamiya kit is indeed outstanding and, as far as I am concerned, befitting of the title of the best model kit available today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for waiting, Brian! The Tamiya kit gave me no problems whatsoever so even though I took a break from modeling this summer, I KNEW in the back of my mind that it would be completed for sure.

Modeling is a very educational exercise and I learned alot as I went through this build. Like the realization that this aircraft had no cockpit floor!
