Old Dog Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 The second of my mojo kick starters was the Hasegawa J2M3. This kit was pure joy and the only issues I had were self made. I had a PE set for it but ended up using only a couple of bits. The IP looked too one dimensional to me so I ended up using the kit IP and supplied decal which I thought came out rather nice. For once I wanted to a Japanese aircraft that didn't look like a paint stripping job gone bad so I kept chipping to a minimum. I took a couple cockpit shots on this one as it is quite large and easy to see through the large canopy. The IP did get a wash but the camera didn't pick it up well. Hopefully this will end my drought and this year will be more fruitful. Thanks for looking ! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Nice looking Raiden and quite rare without heavy weathering. One year ago I built one too, without any aftermarket, a first since being a kid. As you mentioned it is a trouble free relaxing experience. The Hasegawa Raidens should be prescribed for frustrated modelers. Cheers Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
