This is a Hasegawa Ki-48 I in 1/72 scale, the newest addition to my Japanese Surrender aircraft.

Not to sound stupid but what are "surrender" marking?

Very nice Ed. Another unusual build
LA2019 The surrender makings refer to the AC representing one which was used to transport Japanese officials to the treaty signing. They were painted white with dark green/black (some debate about which they actually were) crosses on them. This was done for recognition purposes to avoid them being attacked by allied fighters
 
Thank you all for your kind words. Shinpachi, its good to see you can still take the time with all that is happening around you. Stay well.

Your work is always superb enough to make me forget unhappy things!
