Hi guys,
This December I have been painting WW2 stuff, I saw MIDWAY in cinema and I was in Pacific War mood... so I painted an old pre WW2 aircraft from Imperial Japanese Air Force, a Nakajima Ki 27 fighter, but not serving the IJA, the fighter is in colours of Manchukuo's Air Force, you know, the Japanese controlled puppet state in Manchuria.
I had a very freak idea some time ago, building a Bolt Action army featuring Manchukuo forces against Chinese and Soviets, with cavalry, tanquettes and some infantry & support weapons... But when I saw this little 1/72 model kit, I fell in love instantly and decided to build it quickly! I bought this kit this month and built/painted it in a couple of weeks.
I also ordered a Japanese cavalry officer and a Type 94 tanquette from Warlord Games, in order to expand my "army", an army which consists today in a single aircraft :P
I painted the model with airbrush and Vallejo/Ammo Mig colours, and then weathered with oils and pigments, simple but effective IMHO, I hope you like it!
Lovely and characterful little model
