From Pearl Harbour to Calvary – The history of Mitsuo Fushida closed in small model of plane

Some pics of an old build. Finished with Model Master paints and 3m tape for the camo. I used a masking set for the glass, although I don't remember the brand. (probably Eduard)
I had to get creative with the radar antennae since the kit [...]
