    Default Official Kawanishi H8K2 Emily Painting Thread

    Here's my Emily of the Takuma Kokutai in 1944. Decals from Misc Mini, with lining from XtraDecal and a few 1/600 meatballs from Dom's Decals.

    That looks great! My wingman richard m schwab once ran a scenario of an Emily vs. Catalina. It was a hoot!

    My rendition of an early H8K Emily. She is ready to patrol in the Coral Sea. Another AIM model using Vallejo IJN paints.

    Thanks. I was trying to capture a relatively newer plane before all the paint peeled off, but still showing signs of it. In person it looks a little more weathered and you can see the rust around the engines. The lighting washed some of it out.

    Mike, i inadvertently commented on the other related thread. I think the card is a work of art!

    My only question is, should Arcs 4 & 5 be yellow since they originate from under the wing?

    Thanks!
