Which the Japanese wouldn't have installed to save weight, improve performance & simplify construction.

Looking excellent, Fred! :thumbsup:

Thanks folks.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

That's looking so good.  :thumbsup: Like the missing link between the Ju 88 and Ar 234?

Back on track.
Having masked the nose, primed it, realised more PSR was needed and carried it out I today painted it all over IJN undersides grey/green (or is it green/grey?) again.
Upper surfaces are pleasingly patchy due to preshading.

In the beginning I did not pay attention to this model, but now it is going to be a winner. I love it. :thumbsup: :wub: :wub:

Canopy/nose attached.  The darker mottling is preshading to give the top coat a patchy appearance.

My 1st impression is: very Arado Blitz (sans jets and with twin tails). Looking good  :thumbsup:
Whatever.

In a  change to my usual order of doing things I have cleared this and put on the transfers before completing the paint job.

This is because the upper surface is getting a "crazy paving" pattern and I need to know where the hinomarus are when painting it.  This way seemed easier than marking their position with a pencil and stencil.

Indeed. Brings it all together  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Thanks.  During my brief time in the shed today I masked and painted the yellow leading edge sections (well, first coat anyway).

Took most of my time in the shed today to do this.  I hope to finish the first coat of paint tomorrow.

Oooooh, crazy paving on an aeroplane!  :thumbsup:

Not my first.  I'd forgotten how long it takes.  Having gloss cleared the underlying surface I can adjust the design by scratching the green off with a toothpick.  I will do this and also add more paint to adjust gaps when I do the second coat as my design has got less rounded and more straight edge as I have progressed from the tail onto the wings.

Ooooh, I'd forgotten that wonder machine of yours!  ;D

I LOVED the mid-upper gun position on that, complete with its own engine and pilot!  ;D :thumbsup:
