colin Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Lovely detail, and the seat belts look a treat, but didn't Nakajima aircraft only have lap belts, very few if any Japanese aircraft (I could be wrong) had two chest belts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimmermaniac Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 very few if any Japanese aircraft (I could be wrong) had two chest belts. you're probably right, but historical correctness my bottom long as I have fun I'll keep on gluing things together 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimmermaniac Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 The thing has wings now, no problems on the wingroots, fits like a glove this needs some minor retouching by some sanding sticks and some extra work on the engines Always pays off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do335b6 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Looks fantastic so far, Couple years back I built 3 of them on early , one late , and one Kou which was a limited clear edition. Fun kits looking forward to seeing this one progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
