( in 1/75, the box top said so) With moving ailerons<br />etc. it was a must have! Although the Hasegawa one is somewhat better in scale & detail I like this one very much.

So it's a perfect submission for me. :D<br />Glad you (all) like it!

It's pretty exhaustive, but part of my normal building routine - and I rather offer the full picture, esp. incl. the WiP steps.<br /><br />All beauty/action pics were taken "as is", no composing. Each time it's the model on a simple, self-made base with a paper printout background. Only the display/holder in the flight scenes was edited away, and light/contrast/intensity was tuned.<br /><br />The scenes on the water were taken on two layers of cling foil(!), placed on top of a glossy, blue sweatshirt (don't ask...). The "old" pics are filter effects from the editing software I use (Gimp).<br /><br />Certainly not a winner model in itself, but a colorful entry and a nice challenge to build for sure.Dizzyfuguhttps://www.flickr.com/photos/dizzyfugu/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160546163844864803.post-77765637202040740212017-07-20T11:04:02.981+09:002017-07-20T11:04:02.981+09:00Another excellent example of a modeler at work as ...Another excellent example of a modeler at work as opposed to kit assembler - and I say that as kit assembler myself - my talent for scratch building is very limited. My rating of this commendable effort is 4.5.<br />I think the controversy over the mauve color may be due to either paint oxidation or what the color looked like in the early dawn or dusk times in that theater of operations. There is no concrete documentation of planes being painted this color, but I would not blame any modeler for choosing it. It really does look awesome!<br /><br />Wind SwordsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160546163844864803.post-15188537758523939822017-07-20T02:47:40.396+09:002017-07-20T02:47:40.396+09:00An interesting interpretation of a controversial s...An interesting interpretation of a controversial subject. You really tried to make the best from an outdated kit with a commendable result. The photography is great - very realistic!<br />For more certainty about the camouflage, particularly the myth of violet Rufes, I would recommend consulting the Aviation of Japan website (currently not accessible) and Nick Millman's publications.<br />I give a 4.0 in view of the excellent pictures.Michael Thurownoreply@blogger.com
