Very impressive Wingnut Type 89 Floatplane by Suzuki Shuichi-san
Hamamatsu BMC (Shizuoka Pref.)
Some of the best models and definitely the best table of the show.
This year's theme was "Famous Mitsubishi Fighters".
All models are hand-painted by brush and no decals were used.
Note the amazing all-wooden scratch-built Mitsubishi Ki-83 by Suzuki Toshiyuki-san
I am impressed by the Ki-60 and Ki-87. I am not sure what type the other aircraft is in that set of photos, but all are simply amazing. The build and finish of the J8M1 is also impressive.
ReplyDeleteI am guessing the "what if" A7M3-J was built using the Fine Molds kit as a base then modified? Very cool and definitely unique.
Great job to all that displayed!
Michael, if you are asking about the plane in the middle photo by Komuro-san it is the Kawasaki Ki-88 of which only a mock-up was completed.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I have not heard of the Ki-88. Very clever how the build represents the mock-up.
ReplyDeleteA very impressive line up. I especially liked the Type 89 Floatplane.
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing these great models, what a pleasure to watch them.
ReplyDeleteKomuro-san's scratchbuilt Ki-60 is wonderful; the NMF is EXCEPTIONAL, very convincing.
ReplyDeleteBest in show, however, goes to the Fugaku from Yokohama. Never mind that it's only a what-if, I love it.
