Here are a few pictures of my Hasegawa 1/32 scale Nakajima Ki 43 II Hayabusa.

The “Japanese Army Zero” is a small, beautiful and slender plane that I have always found very elegant.

The kit shows its age, but the general shapes look fine.

After some engraving and some scratch-building, mainly for the cockpit, the result appears to be quite satisfactory.

Colors are from an unidentified plane based in China in 1944.
