Decals on & nearly there!  May replace the fuselage Hinomarus as they are a different shade of red to the ones I used on the wings <_<

Hi Nev
what about moving the wing Hinomarus a bit further back on the wing towards the flaps and use smaller ones on the fuselage behind the wings instead of the larger type you have in front of the wings, just a thought.

Steve, I think you're right about the fuselage ones - too late now though, they're under a coat of Klear, and apart from touch-ups, the model is now done.

Turned out a cracker Nev!  Here's to another 7,  :lol:

All done!  2nd finished model of the year  :cheers: :drink: :thumbsup:

Big thanks to Mav for the profile which provided the inspiration.  There's a few little areas on the model I'm not happy with, mainly due to masking imperfections and a couple of areas that I wish I'd done differently.  Still, I've got another half dozen planned so plenty of time to get it right!  :ph34r:






All comments & criticism welcome, and thanks for the encouragement

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

A thing of beauty Nev.  Can't wait to see the rest.

So incredibly clean----have no idea how you accomplish that but she looks like she belongs on the cover of Hobby Japan.  Great job, Nev!   :thumbsup:   :bow:
