Kawanishi N1K1-Ja Shiden Type 11 "FINISHED"

Decided I needed a break from the Faun so I pulled this one off the shelf. I figured a little Tamiya shake and bake is what was needed to get my mind off the resin. Wanted to do a quick build of less than a week but it is taking a little longer.

Don't know why I took a start up photo as this is not for a campaign. Habit now I guess.

After a couple of hours the first night. Things were moving right along.

Wing joint needed a little filler on this one.

All primered and ready for paint now which I hope to get to tonight.

I well remember your build Christian. I fear this one will not be up to that standard though.

Than you for your vote of confidence but I think you overestimate my ability.

I look at your builds and you are very capable . This kit is a peach :good:

Thanks Warren but this isn't one of those short run kits that you seem so fond of. These Tamiya kits practically fall together. :D

Thanks fellas! :D

Paint is on and all sugar coated and ready for decals. I am supposed to be off work but got called in tomorrow. Dang! Was planning a day at the bench. :angry:

Thanks for the comments fellas!

Put the wraps on this one today. 15 days start to finish. No record on my part but it was a nice build to get the model mojo flowing again. The Tamiya kit went together as expected with no fuss or muss. I feel like I can go back to the resin beast and finish it off now without losing my mind.
