Japanese Aircraft Online Model Contest 004 - LEON KLOKE

Hey there!
I hope I am not too late to sent you some pictures of my just finished Hayabusa.
I build it just for the contest and I am quite satisfied with the results - at least for my standards. I hope you like it. The scale is 1/72. Manufacturer is special hobby.

As promised I send some more photographs of the reworked/more detailed Hayabusa. She really was a nice build - except the engine cowling which was a real pain! Well I know she isn´t a show-stopper. As mentioned before I am very pleased with the result. She was built OOB except from some cockpit detail, added wires to the landing gear and some improvement of the gun-sight.

The finish is hand-brushed. The model depicts a machine from 64th Sentai in Burma 1944. She might be a bit too weathered but anyway I like it that way.
Thank you for sharing!
