Battleship Yamato 1941 Imperial Japanese Navy Fujimi 1/700

I built the battleship Yamato when it was commissioned in 1941 by Fujimi. When I bought Fujimi's ship's lucky bag, the first ship outfitting set was sent to me, so I decided to try it out. For God's sake, Fujimi, I want them to distribute more etched parts. There is no point in the premium.

Missile SS-1C Scud B With MAZ-543 TEL Soviet Army Dragon 1/35

Dragon SS -1 C Scud B and eight wheels drive large military vehicle kit. As you can see from the package, it is a little old kit now. Since it was big, I tried to make it sturdy to some extent, so I buried putty in the gap of the tire and hardened it with a relatively strong instant adhesive.

This is a winter camouflage version of the Messerschmidt Bf109F-4. Marking is I./JG54 flown by Hauptman Hans Phillipp, Krasnogvardeisk, Russia March 1942. The other is JG54 Eastern Front marking. It seems not to be a specific pilot's special fighter.

Suchoj S-37 (Su-47) Berkut Russian Air Force Fighter Revell 1/144

It's Revell Suchoj S-37. The basic color of the aircraft is 80% matte black and 20% blue. Hmm, is this the unique blackish color of the airplane? When I actually paint it, I can't really distinguish the color. If you look closely, it looks bluish.

This is Hasegawa Sabre of JASDF. The decal is very high quality. The marking is the 8th squadron of the 3rd Air Wing. It is based on Misawa base in Aomori Prefecture, one of the Northern Air Force Air Wings. Silver painting is difficult but sometimes interesting.

Supermarine Spitfire Mk. XII Royal Air Force Fighter Airfix 1/48

This is an Airfix Spitfire. I am glad that plastic model manufacturers in that country are offering kits of famous aircraft that they can be proud of to the world. The Mk. XII Spitfire was deployed only in the 41st Squadron, Royal Air Force Tangmere, Sussex, and the 91st Squadron, RAF Hawkinge, Kent, England. About 100 fighters from other types were modified. The Airfix kit decal can also be chosen from these two squadrons.

Polikarpov I-16 Type 10 Russian Air Force Fighter Eduard 1/48

It's an Eduardo Polykarpov I -16 fighter kit. Comes with a cockpit panel and seat belt parts for detailed details. The Marking is the Generalmajor Ivan A. Lakeev, Hero of the Soviet Union, 1941. The Eduard instruction comments "This aircraft was based with 46th IAP at Vasilkov airfield. Note that this was a VIP aircraft, very carefully maintained, kept clean and polished, in perfect condition. It will be a disappointment to heavy weathering lovers, so be careful with pre-shading and other weathering tricks."

Sd.Kfz.251/1 Ausf.D Schützenpanzer German Half-Track AFV Club 1/35

It is a standard 251 half-track of AFV Club. The marking was the vehicle of the 2nd-SS Panzer Division "Das Reich". By the way, Das Reich is German meaning "nation". It was a vehicle around July 1944. In February 1944 Das Reich Division was reorganized and supplemented and it was transferred to the direction of Normandy from the Eastern Front.

German Self-Propelled Gun Crew Dragon 1/35

The Dragon World War II German self-propelled artillery crew. I think I can combine them as a tank soldier in an ordinary winter uniform. It is a camouflage paint of dark green and red-brown on the basic beige paint. In addition, there is a vertical black line, which is a rather laborious process in painting German uniforms, and I think it can be said that it is a kind of military uniform that requires a lot of painting work.

Dragon German tank crew figure set. There is 6 crew in total. It's a typical German tank soldier's black uniform. The crew of Neubau-Fahrzeug that I made earlier is 6 crew, so it is not a bad situation to put a figure on a tank.
