Arma Hobby Ki-84 Hayate, 1/72


Recommended Posts

Japanese aircraft aren't my forte but I've become a bit of an Arma Hobby fan so I had to get their new Hayate and have a go at it.  The kit is on par with their other recent releases and goes together with no problems.  I kept weathering to a minimum, basically just a light wash on the panel lines to make them stand out and some light scuffing on the wing root below the cockpit.  I think I may have made a mistake in painting the rollover structure the same interior green as the rest of the cockpit, I think now it should have been black.  The green propeller was news to me but apparently some were that color later in the war.  Always fun to learn and build something new!

Excellent build and a proper choice of colours. This Hayate looks like coming right out of the factory - weren't they beautiful in their unimpaired livery?
