Decent fit. The nose was problematic..got it to flow with the shape of the kit best I could. Not doing the dry brushing as there is way to much masking on this paint job. Metallic paint is AKs extreme metal paint. I added some lead weight in the nose area, hopefully it's enough.

What is the story with the side guns removed? Just curious. I know that some planes had them and others they were either removed or not installed.

You mean on the actual aircraft? You know they were installed originally as a field mod, something that was incorporated into production during the run.

Actually, it is why are there weird paint outlines on the sides where the guns go?

It's been said the muzzle blast of the cheek mounted .50's caused degradation to the loomium skin of the airplane. There was a field mod to install blast plates to protect the skin. Are 8 forward-firing machine guns not enough? Imagine the unwary young Shoki driver that makes a head-on pass at a flying buzzsaw like this one? Seinaru tawagoto!
Indeed.
