Hello

I wanted to change a little bit, so why not a Japanese?
Nice kit, just some fitting tweak and detailing.

absolutely Stunning Secu.

I love the N1k1 and that is a lovely build, the weathering is superb.

Lovely work Secu as always , but that plane is nearly as ugly as a P47, look like the fat birds you pull late on a Friday night. :D

It was the only time I ever saw him aggravated with me. He waved away my argument with his impatient hand: “Yes, Yes, whatever, but don’t you see we LOVED our 109s. We loved it.”

It's a good-looking 1/72 build with lots of chipping where it counts.
