Here is a japanese project to end the WWII (derived from Ki 83), that was captured and tested by the USAF. It had much influence on the subsequent development of Curtiss XP-71.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Wow! How did you do the metal finish? 
Thanks Taiidantomcat.

I used a special metallic paint overall, and polishable paints of Testors on some panels.

Cheers
