User Name: ....... fastmongrel
Name: ................Stu
Category: .......... Intermediate
Kit: .....................RS Model
Scale: .................1/72
Accessories: ..... seatbelts from the spares box, Canopy rear section from a Dragon Meteor FIII kit, CMK resin engine.
Location.............. Japan
Date...................... August 1945
The kit was bought from a show and I didn't realise until I commenced building that I spotted the canopy was for the High back version as on the box but the fuselage sprue was for the Low back version. I modified a spare canopy rear section from a Dragon Meteor FIII, cut down the canopy and modified the fuselage to tie it all together. I had unfortunately robbed some of the transfers/decals when I thought this kit would never be built but I have managed to find enough to look like a service aircraft hurriedly finished ready for action
