Zero Fighter Akagi Fighter Group (Pearl Harbor) Sweet 1/144

This Sweet kit is a 3-piece set. I build them all together. Comes with ultra-fine pitot tube parts, so a hole is drilled on the main wing with a 0.3 mm drill and bonded. As always, it was hard to mask all canopies.

It's a Platz Texan trainer. It seems like the Air Self-Defense Force and the Maritime Self-Defense Force's Texans are included in the F-Toys Convention's Japanese Wing Collection 4 series. I wonder if this is for people who assemble and paint by themselves.

U.S. Jeep Crew And MP Miniart 1/35

A Miniart Jeep crew and MP figure set. As for painting uniforms for U.S. infantry, even if there are orders to paint various kits in the past, they are quite different, so I'm worried about it. If you feel comfortable with the colors you are familiar with in movies and dramas, it might be good.
