Another Mitsubishi in 1/72

[phantom II]

As I was looking for parts for the Hampden and trying to figure out how the other guy build his, I discovered thid little beauty of a kit : The A-5M2. The predecessor to the Zero .

Fujimi made a little jewel here

The wings are shaped like a spitfire

The fuselage is well done

I added a few boxes between the ribd to simulate radios and other equipment.

Some Mr hobby was sprayed on

The cokpit asemble lickidy split

The interior was sprayed mr finishing black and shortly after the mitsubishi green.

Picked out a few details

That is the best looking IP decal I have ever seen. Just need to be a bit smaller.

The seat bucket was drilled and a torque tube added to the floor.

Hope you like it Sorry Gary I'll have to leave you like this. Going to the show at Fayetteville show tomorrow.

Sorry, I could not pass this one up. I like it so much I have already ordered the A-5M4

Thanks for looking in guys. It seems that what use to be my thing about the Luftwaffe has morphed into a thing about Japanese aircraft as of late. :idonno

Can't say enough about this little kit though Fujimi has done a wonderful job on this one .It goes together like a fine watch.

Tell you what Bob. It's not going as gracefully as I had hoped for .

And I would also like to add that I'm still pretty computer illiterate :nothingtoad

Well, still trying to get things back to normal after being at the Fayetteville show .

I'm preparing the wing for the large clear lenses of the position lights.

Those lenses must have been HUGE :woohoo:

 

[phantom II]

They look it Dave . The Judy's did as well . The colored plastic lenses are so much faster to do :bangs
head

Anyhuuw , here we go.....

It starts like this , and then using the above gadgets the plastic rod get's tooled to a dimension that can be polished into submission . Seriously don't like clear plastic as it is so hard and brittle :vmad

Now to use the other parts of the stick to polish them

Cheers, Christian B)
