NAKAJIMA A6M2-N Type 2 FLOAT-PLANE FIGHTER (THUNDERBOLT) SWEET 1/144 BOX PACKAGEIt is a Nakajima A6M2-N 2 floatplane fighter of 1/144 scale. Sweet has obtained a new report of the U.S. military investigation, and it is a definite version kit that accurately reproduces the dimensions of the unknown point.

I might do the white dry brush a bit more. I plan to paint the fighters as belonging to track island and Maikor Island in Indonesia, so I made a shade like an emerald green that imaged the south island. I blew blue and green based on Mr. crystal’s color, tourmaline green. It is a surprisingly good transparent feeling. I purchased crystal colors a few years ago but had no opportunity to use them in my modeling.

Especially the Japanese airplane in WWII with many frames. I used a Tamiya masking tape that also adapts to the curved surface.

NAKAJIMA A6M2-N Type 2 FLOAT-PLANE FIGHTER (THUNDERBOLT) SWEET 1/144 PAINTINGI completed the basic painting with dark green and light gray-green. Although it is still plain, after putting the decal, it should make it look better dramatically.

NAKAJIMA A6M2-N Type 2 FLOAT-PLANE FIGHTER (THUNDERBOLT) SWEET 1/144 FINISHED WORKNakajima A6M2-N is completed. It is a water plane based on Zero. Because it is splashed from the propeller at boarding time, the pilot gets on and off the starboard. By the way, Sweet’s box character also hangs on the right-side ladder.

NAKAJIMA A6M2-N Type 2 FLOAT-PLANE FIGHTER (THUNDERBOLT) SWEET 1/144 FINISHED WORKThe total amount of production is 327 aircraft. It was especially mass-produced as a water fighter. At that time, only Japan was developing watercraft with human resources.

To be sure, I thought about strength and wrapped it around the rod. There seems to be no thread break.

Both fighters’ propeller fronts are painted in silver, but the backside is matte black. The reason is not to be disadvantageous to the pilot by a shiny reflection.

But it is recommended because this base is painted and decorated with a good appearance.

I was worried about how to complete this fighter.

As the adhesive protrudes, it gets dirty immediately, and fine masking is complex. It is small enough to put on my palm. Interestingly, the sense of precision is tremendous.

NAKAJIMA A6M2-N Type 2 FLOAT-PLANE FIGHTER (THUNDERBOLT) SWEET 1/144 FINISHED WORKI bought this kit a couple of years ago; compared with the price range of the previous 1/144 kit, even if it entered two aircraft, it was expensive at a price. Of course, there are no complaints about details and molds.
