Manshu Ki-53 "Insei", 1st chutai, 4th sentai

BTW: it is amazing how elegant a He 162 becomes if you get rid of the hunchback engine! I was amazed how sleek the fuselage is, together with the tiny canopy - so the DH.88, which are beautiful in themselves, are a perfect match. I could imagine this "match" also as a pre-Hornet fighter, or a "better" Whirlwind in RAF colours. But the overall look was so Japanese, it had to become an Asian "work". 

Sometimes, the model simply tells you what story to tell!

So true, sometimes it even tells you to make turns and changes during the making of.

So...."hearing voices" again, eh?   I'll be talking with your attendant to ramp up your meds!

You don't just drop one of these what-if's onto a table at a show without preparation comrade!

You need some smelling salts for the rivet-counter-JMN-experten who might come to grief looking at it.

Some gauze in case their eyes start to bleed, some codeine, probably a strait-jacket just in case.....

I was thinking, maybe some bourbon or scotch for them after they stop weeping in horror at the non-reality . . . But the smelling salts are a good idea, too.  poor souls, no imagination!

P. S.

Maybe the booze for yourself!
