Finishing a Mitsubishi Ki-46-II Dinah trainer on take-off. I'd never paid much attention to the Ki46, but the more I worked on it, the more I realised it has really beautiful lines - up in the same class as the Mosquito IMHO. The bird-cage canopy of the trainer version is just wild!
This is the 1:72 ARII kit I picked up as a SG$5 bargain. Why are cheap kits often the most fun?!
This time, I decided to try propblurmodels for in-flight effect, and I really like it. I think I could push the fade of the painting even further for more realism.
I used some Hasegawa airmen figures - navy not army, but after all the careful painting, not really visible through the canopy anyway!
