Scale: 1/48
Manufacturer: Zoukei-Mura
Model Type: Ta-152 H-1
Aftermarket Add-ons: Zoukei Mura gun barrels, scratch building as needed (if even needed). I know the choices are very limited, but I do want to avoid green 9 if at all possible.
Ok, Wayne got me very interested in a ZM kit. Plus, who can wrong with any type of long nosed 190ish aircraft. So, here we go for this group build.
I have always loved those long nose birds and have more than a couple of 190-Ds started. I have always found the 152 to be a damned interesting idea, but she came along too late in the war. One of these days I need to tamp my scratch building lust on a D and just get one done.
I am thinking either green 4, the way over used one, or green nine. I think 9's paint job is a little "grungier". But, I like the washed out W + CJ markings underneath the green 4.
