Hasegawa Nakajima KI-43 (Oscar)

[Pierce]

Well here it is my entry into this GB

The kit is an older kit which you can tell from the molds. In one you can see what I call swirles. Not sure what they are or how it will effect the paint. Guess I will see soon enough.





Im not sure how the decals are going to work. I might have to get some after market

and the instructions. You can also tell the age of the kit from the instructions

Hi Pierce , nice subject choice

Well the kit looks an oldie , so welcome to the club , my Tamiya NAkajima Frank was a little like yours ...but is good to be back to older days but now with the new techniques

Really hope that your build went well and good luck with it ! Those swirles look a great challenge to your paint job ...

Hi Pierce, nice choice. The swirls may well be in the plastic and not effect the paint. May be older but a great kit nonetheless. Aidan

I just hope I have to complete it. I work 10 hrs and them go to school for 4 hrs so there is not a lot of time during the week.

I hate to do it but have to pull my entry. First my computer took a crap so i have no way of posting pics, second between working 10hrs then going to school for 4 hours i just don't have the time third and the most serious of them all on the 6th of February my wife was car jacked thank god she is OK and the idiot bad guy did not know how to get the Mini van into drive all he got away work was her purse. Maybe next time

Really sorry to hear that Pierce, sounds like you have had a crap couple of weeks. Glad your wife is ok but that sort of thing has got to shake you up.

Modelling is our escape from the world outside, but sometimes there is no escaping it.
