    The first of three ki-30’s I’m working on. As usual, the photo doesn’t do a good job capturing the weathering and color details. This is a AIM 1/200 using Vallejo Air paints. I really enjoy painting these IJA aircraft. So many options!

    Nice one Dave. Have to love all the Japanese schemes. Such a variety to pick from. I have bought a few more planes than I had planned on just to do a few more camo schemes.

    Here is my 2nd Chutai, 10th Sentai ki-30. When getting close to finishing it, my wife said it was “pretty” and asked me not to weather it. So, here is a rare, freshly coated plane that just rolled off the line. I tend to like heavily weathered planes, but i guess they were all new at some point!
