N1K2-J Shiden-Kai First Prototype


Uncarina

Recommended Posts

This is the Hasegawa kit: great engineering, fit, and detail. I added the following:

 

HGW belts

Scratchbuilt throttle

Riveting

Custom masks

Engine wiring using EZ line.

Tamiya and AJ Interactive paints

 

If interested, I posted a WIP here:

 

Cheers,  Tom

Outstanding! So rarely seen in prototype colors, and nicely weathered!

Thanks Ray! Weathering was with oils, pastels, and Prismacolor pencils. That was definitely a fun part of the build.

That's awesome Tom! You're Ki-45 was an awesome build too!With this virus "house arrest" I'm reading the biography of Admiral Ray Spruance!

May brave the elements later and  go to Taco Bell for a large Baja Blast Mt. Dew!

 

I give it 2 Banzai's! Cheers....Ron

 

Domo arigato Ron-san! Sounds like a great read.
