Great looking "pits" on these models!
Not sure, but I think the landing gear of the D-9 has a small issue, can't remember exactly what, but either the wheels are a bit undersized of the legs a bit too short..
I think there is a comparison article on Tamiya's and Dragon's D-9's. (Hyperscale perhaps?)
 
I found the Tamiya wheels too small, the spinner incorrectly shaped, and the wheel wells wrong in that they are closed and do not have the open view into the engine bay. The front cowl is also not quite right. Eduard has the better accuracy but is a more complicated build.
 

Thanks for clearing this. I have a Eduard D-9 Week-end kit. Haven't really gave it a good look. Might do it one day as a JV44 protection flight bird...
Sorry for the hi-jack. Back to the Tamiya D-9 it is!
 
I really dont pay attention to things they did wrong or should have done or this is the wrong size I build simply cause i love aircraft. When done i will have a nice looking model on my shelf
 
Finally areas painted. Time for gloss coat and decals . Stay frosty

What a collection of war birds! The interiors are very good and these last two, "they take the palms" =D>
I have enjoyed your multiproject and I am still impressed by your speed and the way to tackle so many kits simultaneously!
Están padrísimos!!
