KI43-11

[oz rb fan]

my latest finished model
it's a special hobby KI43 the kit was bought with the major parts assembled and the BMF finish done(so i have no idea what it has been painted with but it looks amazing) the decals are from a berna sheet as i didnt want to put paint splotches ove such a nice finish and are for a plane from the 248th sentai based in Hollandia PNG in 1944.

so whilst i cant take credit for how it was put together and the little detail bits that have been done i hope i did it proud.

Paul damn nice kit mate, the 248th Sentai another favourite Sentai of mine along with the 77th both in Hollandia and both decimated.
Keep them coming I may even put my 1/32 Ki-43 II in 77th Sentai markings when I get my finger out.
