Tamiya 1/48 J2M3 Jack

January 14, 2022 · in Aviation · · 10 ≡ · 1.1K

This is a 50 year old kit but it holds up pretty well. It has raised panel lines but they were easily re-scrible. Decals are a bit thick but are nice none the less.

    Nice work on an older kit. Good fading and weathering, in particular. How did you do the chipping at the wing root and elsewhere? It looks like maybe a masking procedure?

    Nice build - I really do like the Raiden - beefy for a Japanese plane.
