well i got one more finished for 2015.

It's an RS models KI94-2,the real one got to prototype stage at the end of the war,the first being readied for it's first flight and the second still under construction at the end of the war.

the kit comes in two versions the two prototypes and the "production" version with a couple of nice whiff scheme's for the 244th Kokotai home defense unit,a specialist anti B29 unit that had a fait amout of success using the KI61 tony .

the kit builds ok for a short run kit and th decals are great very thin and really form well to panel lies etc,i'm pretty happy with this as i was trying to experiment with weathering.

thanks everyone..i am happy with how she came out.
HRT she's a bloody fast target at 433MPH and heavy hitting with a pait of 2mm cannon and a pair of 30mm cannon's.........not sure i'd like to be in a B29 with this puppy coming at me!!! :shock:
