Joao Augusto Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 This is the old Hasegawa J2M3 Raiden, finished in the markings of Lt. Susumu Itoh of 302nd Kokutai, Atsugi, 1945. The kit is almost out of the box, except for some scratch in the cockpit and the cannon barrels. I used PrintScale decals but had to modify the scoreboard on the top of the rudder to more closely represent the real thing. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toryu Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Great Raiden! Looks like 1/48 really. I like your finish with only light weathering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Well, that's gorgeous! On my next IJN or IJAF build, your model will be a definite benchmark for my efforts. I know I have that Hasegawa 1/72 Ki-44 somewhere in my stash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
