After the assembly of the Type 61 tank, I realized that I thought there were about three figures in the tank kit, but it didn’t include them. I have a kit of Finemolds Type 60 Self-propelled 106 mm Recoilless Gun, which includes two figures.
It doesn’t have one, so I bought it in a hurry. This kit figure is the same as in Type 60 Self-propelled 106 mm Recoilless Gun.
There are two types of heads, and the shape of the radio is different.
I thought the head of the injection kit was not so good mold and hard to paint, but this kit is good. They look like Japanese faces, and I like that they are seriously carrying out their duties.
After cutting out all the parts together, I don’t know what part is. Poses may be different from the instruction. Two kinds of helmets are mixed.

This time, I painted the face fresh first and Masking Sol. With this, I think I can paint the uniform pretty well even after I blow it with an airbrush.
All 4 of them were wearing type 65 work clothes, and I was wondering what color to paint. I had just run out of creo slacker 54 khaki green the other day. I ended up using the khaki green number 54. After that, I painted the face, painted the detailed equipment boots… I forgot to attach wearing the goggles! I lost my decal while assembling a Type 61 tank, so my motivation is low. But there are still many processes.
I painted the faces. I like the face of the leftmost tank soldier best. I think I’ll try to make it look like this. The other three had big eyes, so it might be better to narrow them. But it’s so detailed that my eyes hurt.
Umm, I didn’t paint it well overall this time. The mold of the face was not bad, but it was difficult for me to paint, or I didn’t have much concentration.
I think khaki green is the uniform color, like the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. It also matches well with a tank.
It feels like moving his waist quickly. It might be a little strange. The pose is different from the box picture because I thought this figure could be put on a tank, so I tried the pose without a gun, but it didn’t fit in the end.
The neck is crooked, but it’s just a natural pose.
Since it was tiresome to paint with a brush, I sprayed Mr. Creos color on the uniform this time. I thought I had made weathering and gloss adjustments, but I was wondering if it would taste better if I painted with a brush. I don’t know because it’s just a feeling. Next time I make a figure, I’ll paint it with a brush.
This picture looks instead natural.
It’s like a scene during a drill. When I put a figure on a tank, I always look at the figure. But it is good that the tanks look lively.
Some tank crews are looking in the wrong direction but are on full alert.
I took a picture with four crew members.
This Finemolds JGSDF tank crew is a figure of the 60s, so it is precious. The mold is not bad, so I would like to concentrate on painting a little more if I have another chance.

I am interested in models of tanks, airplanes, ships, military figures, I build them little by little when I feel like it. I am also interested in the history of war. My starting is Tamiya’s Military Miniature series in elementary school.
From elementary school through university students repeatedly suspend and restart my modeling, it’s about 25 years of this hobby’s history.
From February 2007 I was quietly doing a site called “Miniature-Arcadia”. It is being transferred to this blog with the same name from December 2016. My update pace is uneven, but please come to see me here occasionally.
