Hasegawa 1/72 Ki-44 'Tojo'

Post by cbaltrin »

Just finished up work on this little 1/72 ki-44 for the Japanese GB over on FSM. Just used the unit emblem decal on the rudder. Everything else is painted.

BTW, Did I mention that this is a tiny airplane?

Yo was, that looks great.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Thanks Stik. If I built one again, I'd go for the 1/48 or 1/32 version!

Thanks. I'm now qualified to be an aircraft spotter I guess...
