Hello everyone … As this theater gets little attention compared to NWE or the Southwest Pacific. I think we could wrangle enough interest in a group build. Dates would start on 7th July 1937 and go to September 2nd 1945. Explanation for change of dates below. It could be anything that was operating in or on the sub-continent of India, Indochina, or China. The Naval area of operations would be anything from the eastern edge of 1937 India (Pakistan). Through to the Western edges of Philippines and Borneo. North to the Sea of Japan and I will say the western coast of Australia is the south eastern border of the Indian ocean. Madagascar would be the western edge, and Antarctica will be the extreme south edge. I’ve decided after some thought to expand the dates of the build to include the Sino-Japanese war starting in 1937. I consider this part of the war and is definitely part of the Chinese theater. If anyone has any thoughts on this I will consider listening to arguments on this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Sino-Japanese_War https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/South-East_Asian_theatre_of_World_War_II https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_Burma_India_theater If anyone is interested in this please say so. 1.

Hi gents ! After my post on IJN Zero, I've received a claim from IJA saying , "Easy to go on with Navy ,buddy ! But what about serious people ? " ( these guys really don't like each others 😄 😉) So , Here is my answer to this request .( Hope that IJA Headquarters would like it , and more important to me , you too !! ) Arma Hobby offers us what is in my opinion the definitive Ki-84 kit in 1:72nd scale. Waiting for it for so long ! This is MY Favorite IJAA fighter ever, began to build the Revell one when I was .. A Kid ?? 🙁 you remember ? , this box After that I went on with Hasegawa one with the same deco. Now back to Arma Hobby one, Their first Boxing included this scheme , and they add a good ( in my opinion ) study on 104th Sentaï operations records won't copy it here, but if you're interested in go to their blog ( don't have any stock of this company 😉) The kit is real gem ! we are happy 1:72 nd guys to have such a good maker for our scale models. Please guys, don't go for a Ki-43 serie !! This will burn out my Visa !! I decided to not do "heavy weathering" as these planes did not see intense use , (were based out of main active pacific/ CBI theaters of operations) Painted with MRP " WW II Japanese range of paints " I liked to build this one , and I'm glad too, to share it with you all ! Hope you'll like it ! best regards to all and .. good modelling !! now the pics : cheers !!- 33 replies
