Andwil Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Here is my Mitsubishi A5M2b “Claude” built for the Salty Sea Dog group build. The A5M was the world’s first monoplane shipboard fighter. This model represents the aircraft of Lt Tamotsu Yokoyama of the Soryu fighter squadron in November 1939. Hobby Boss easy build kit finished with Vallejo white aluminium and dull aluminium, Tamiya gloss red and AK IJN cowling blue-black. Thanks for looking.

billn53 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Very, very nice! I built Clear Prop’s Claude in the same markings (a wonderful kit, BTW). It’s good to see another to compare with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopesdaddy Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Clean build on the old Claude, looks much better than the ancient nichimo kit I built many many years ago. Maybe it's time to build another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
