JASDF RF-4E Phantom II Hasegawa 1/48

I will try to build the RF-4E Phantom II, a reconnaissance aircraft of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force. It was stacked for a long time, and along the way, missile parts were taken away for various kits, and the box was opened and closed several times. I have made several Phantoms in the past, so I have a little experience, but how is it? I think the camouflage pattern of this box painting is cool. The color is slightly different, but it looks like a US Air Force aircraft during the Vietnam War.

Kawasaki Ki45Kai Type-Tei Toryu (Nick) Japanese Army Two-Seat Fighter Hasegawa 1/48

After a long time, I'm trying to build an Imperial Japanese Army plane. It's a Hasegawa Toryu. The upper part of the fuselage is equipped with an upward gun. It's a twin engine, so I wonder whether it will be quite big when finished. The box is not that big.

USAF F-16A Fighting Falcon Hasegawa 1/48

Hasegawa's F-16A Fighting Falcon kit. The other day, I was looking for Playstation 2 software and dug it together from the back of the closet. I found it with the Tamiya German Hs 123 I made the other day. This is a little too old. When did I buy this?

The Type-97 fighter has been completed. It was a fighter of the Imperial Japanese Army, and it was very active during the China Incident, the Nomonhan Incident, and the beginning of the Pacific War. About 3,400 units were produced. As for the gloss of the painted surface of the Type 97 fighter this time, I was able to do the airbrush painting as I liked.

F-4E Phantom II 30th Anniversary U.S. Air Force Fighter Hasegawa 1/48
