What can I say, not a bad little kit.
It went together quite well with minor scraping and filling.
Built OOB the only additions were a small piece of brass tube for a short shot in the cockpit and scrap photoetch for the rear view [...]
14 - Tamiya 1/24 Mazda 787b

Tamiya 1:48 P-51D-10-NA

Tamiya P-47D Thunderbolt, 1/48
