That's a very nice looking cockpit.

Fuselage and wings are one. Assembly is going quite fast and the fit of this kit is good. However, the masking is very tedious. So many little panes and very few are actually square.

That looks like fun sanding!

Cool looking aircraft though!

Very nice work! It does seem to have a lot of cockpit detail for a 1/72 scale aircraft. I find that Japanese companies tend to give their best efforts on Japanese subjects.

Yes, I wasn’t to happy about the wing/fuselage fit. The dihedral was off as well. So I broke wings off and reattached them.

I have put a black base on and the painted the upper side with green (Tamiya xf-11). The depth effect was less then wanted. The green came out a bit to solid. But I am keeping it anyway.
