Excellent! Is it 1/72?

Thank you, Gorbygould 🙂 Yes, it is in 1/72nd scale - two kits in the box, I purchased the "used" one with only one kit and some decals missing.

Thank you, Danumurthi. This is one of the "paper projects" and one of the first Meng kits.

Very fun build! Sorry the paints were not good but the color scheme is great

Thanks, Ben. I tried to imitate the scheme presented in the book "Japanese Secret Projects" by Edwin Dyer, and I thought that Dark Polish Khaki would match with orange best...

What's this cute little aircraft? 👍
This paintjob is a real eyecatcher, Robert. I will have to try this camouflage one day 🙂

Thank you, WhiteGlint 🙂 This is one of the 'paper-projects' from the end of the WWII supposed to start with RATO bottles and propelled with the ramjet - still Meng model designers decided to give it a turbine face in front (also in the box there was 'classical' cockpit configuration... that I changed to more plausible 'prone-pilot' version)

Nice subject. Reminds me of tiger meet camo 🙂

Why am I seeing this for the first time?!
It's actually not to be overlooked!
Clearly: super successful tiger camouflage on this curious object!!

Thank you, Stephan and Simon, very appreciated. @Simon - actually I am not happy with the final effect. My intention was to paint much narrower stripes, but the paint I used here refused to cooperate...

Album info

Cockpit transformed into a prone-lying pilot configuration. As it is proposed in the kit the face turbine would be probably propelled with pedals by pilot 😉 Notwithstanding, as far as I know it was supposed to be powered with a ramjet, but I liked the look of the turbine face in front. Stripes are the effect of my very first and surely the last use of Hataka paints (sorry...)
