it's the Hasegawa KI 61-Otsu i 1/48 scale with decals from Aero master for an airframe from the 69th sentai that was operated in PNG and captured by US forces then later rebuilt and tested in Brisbane at Archerfield.

the kit is typical Hasegawa from the period and i did have problems with the wing roots(they tell me all of the Hasegawa KI61's have that problem),,,,it was painted with Tamiya AS12 for the sliver and tamiya IJAAF grey on the control surfaces and the green squiggles were free handed with my airbrush on low pressure.
overall very happy with the final result.
