Here is my Tamiya 1/48 scale N1K1 Kyofu Type 11 Rex floatplane fighter.
I painted this Naval plane taking some tips from the wreck photos shown on this page.
I am working on the streaking a little more for the up and coming museum showcase for Air Force in June. I need to rework the antenna and also the pitot tube at the wings.
I am working on a series of these planes....also a handpainting article with pastels and acrylics.
I have also included the list of Japanese official fighter victory reports....some of these are phenomenal.....there is one with 87 confirmed kills! That outnumbered most Allied squadrons total tally! For simple planes, they heck of a lot of havoc over the Pacific!
