Mitsubishi MU-2S; Hasegawa 1/72


Recommended Posts

Just finished vintage model of Mitsubishi MU-2S built as an OoB. Total failure with decals :( 40-years old were to weak for proper applying even after Microscale Liquid Decal Film. Some are (re)painted, and decal edges are still visible (even on photos below) even after (careful) sanding. If you have it in your wardrobe - buy a new ones or reprint your decals!

 

MU-2S is a special version of MU-2 built for J.A.S.D.F. with few modifications: radar (and radome), bulb windows, doors opening during flight and (due to that) unpressurized cabin. Main role: Search-And-Rescue :D

A fine job indeed!

While I was aware of the kit, that's all I know about this plane.

But it sure is a cute and interesting looking aircraft.

I think you've done an excellent job, in spite of your decal issues.

:clap:👍
