Daywalker Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I'm looking for some references for these machines, sadly I can't really find any books which show detailed images of the airplane. I have the Aero Detail books on the Ki-84, N1K2, A6M, Ki-43, etc and am wondering if there's anything similar for these machines. I know that Zoukei Mura did a "Concept Notes" book on the Raiden, but those seem to be unavailable anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Have you tried eBay for the concept notes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daywalker Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Thank you, I did actually find one on Ebay. While I was there, I came across this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175342398814 I'm not familiar with Model Art, are they any good? I would like to make sure it's a good reference before laying out that much cash for a copy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill_S Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 I could be wrong, but I'm under the impression that Model Art only contains images of models. I checked Famous Airplanes of the World (FAOW), but didn't find anything on the Tojo. Maru Mechanic or the smaller Mechanism of Military Aircraft are good references. https://www.ebay.com/itm/225428028313?hash=item347c8ebb99:g:glIAAOSwi9Bj7tYt&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4GldlUzA2L99WqRqBMR3Qjh7arq2sP%2BldienejvOt08HW5FyGnIdRtUoKlnLEPnW3WKResNepa%2BvIdwztOHce0XZFJt6r0cIZjV17ROG88vH2X7rNJy%2FF6GKGm%2B53YUOgp%2BtK9PMQ%2FLeBMLE30SlmTrMqdhmeji7NRc7YewiVx2KuMjFgEQwEih4hd%2Ba1E0%2BG5BgzsDgCPzboybfWfa4WVUhsEq%2BegpQujzhAWy4bbkIQpHfU1UKe8rfGUT9Al9LB0C%2FmRwuXYVYlNbzgIn4LmjRBjCmNhlOE%2FzlFWX0C6Mw|tkp%3ABk9SR7qGkfjqYQ https://www.ebay.com/itm/255867737684?hash=item3b92e7d654:g:TVUAAOSwQ2djkUeF&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4HTuMaiTRbZ96ycR8pCrRDCrHCJ2X37q0b%2Fg7Wj0bDVKUw%2BqCkrOTLXLI2ZliAAStq9Q5cn6%2BkqSGuY2%2F%2BEJLnm7kOsVVu8U7bgsL4FRgLl0zNFC0HeDZqZVjjngJhcR6yWjrIyKKnNF3%2FUobzVS7v0kuieg06oB3KD64HM39%2BnZXsP0RIlvRDz64Vr3bJWEsZh%2B%2BuS2OWUmhgnCDHa%2FEQN%2BLZa%2BZGy3VHsRaIgwMzw58z83XuHgOaZ5EiWdppakWuuoifWweswRBGU7pt9Kua9hO0U%2B8PuHEhZJbdR49BFE|tkp%3ABk9SR6zmqPjqYQ https://www.ebay.com/itm/304729534459?hash=item46f34baffb:g:OXkAAOSwr3hjj031&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAwI3jmXHdlc6mW1JYPqanx6ZZFkytX0wC4IFP6P4aiP2rJnLi3PRO2N0CQMVGhLnM1ousHVMdTOVhjeUABDuzQZleJeC6xJaexDBv6qmWs2KHw0iIAUlLFwoN%2B7F7egYKsPDpZAkdo0FFfHqWhZyNoC7RiFUmFrEkZe71GhR1HL5T%2BEJyy04MTLdz0JuZeRR1LklZyyXa9Cfyo3yS5Xq44M1%2FXy5pIUEh8HjVgt3h16kLrx3roeobhpUgSPk%2FhbD5Tw%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR67nvvjqYQ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HubertB Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 I can also vouch for the quality of Maru Machanic publications, at last for drawings and the like. The B&W pictures are of more limited quality, but then it’s also maybe a function of the period originals … Hubert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daywalker Posted April 6, 2023 Author Share Posted April 6, 2023 Thank you Bill and Hubert, I was not familiar with that publication - I am very looking forward to learning more about them. And, at those prices, I can swing getting a couple of them. Bill - Thank you for taking the time to look for them and post the links, MUCH appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
