Recommended Posts

Nice result! 👍 

Beautiful model of a kit it's difficult to comprehend was tooled over quarter of a century ago! Typical Tamiya fit and parts count. Love it.

Sincerely not the best of Tamiya production. Some models from the same period are under detailed compared to what they offered after. On the Ki-46 the wheel wells are empty, the canopy is at a minimum and the sliding hood cannot be displayed open.But still our friend has extracted a great model. best regards.

Appreciate it's not Tamiya today, but that was pretty typical of mid '90s Tamiya air though wasn't it? e.g. Mitsubishi Isshikirikko Type 11 G4M1, Heinkel He 219 A-7 Uhu,  IDK for certain as I was in plastic modelling hiatus and had been for an aeon at the time.

It definitely requires some extra work as performed by Pagey's nice model (pity, that the look into the cockpit is barred by reflections). There is a very good replacement cockpit available from Lone Star Models https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057032036635.
