Tamiya 1/48th scale Ki-46 III

[Heavens Eagle]

@jknaus Did you find a Ki-43 in 1/32? I think I would be onboard for that.

I did, the old Hasegawa kit. Should be a fun build from all the reviews. I got mine on Amazon.ca but looking at the US site its even cheaper. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0017TCBSM?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
I also ordered the Montex Mask for it and some resin wheels from Poland, along with the Montex mask for my Ki-27.

Oops, my bad. (shows I DON'T know diddly about Japanese aircraft) I was thinking that was the Shitei III Recon plane. Would love to see that in 1/32.

Gorgeous. I dont know if it was your builds or what but have a Ki-27 and Ki-43 in the line up now.

Thanks!! Which kits do you have? I built Hasagawa's 1/48th scale Ki-43 kit and it's pretty nice. Looking forward to your builds. Gary S.

Special Hobby Ki-27 and Hasegawa Ki-43, both 1/32. First I need to get through the TBD-1 but the PE is slowing me down and annoying me.

I'm calling this one done!! Included pics comparing it to a P-38. Gary S.

The size comparison is interesting. I always pictured it as a larger aircraft.
Nice finish, well done!

Looks a little bit smaller than the P-38. Probably why it was so fast. Gary S.

Nice model, neatly done.
