Japanese Group Build XII

Rules

*Start Date January 1, 2023

*End Date December 31, 2023

*Japanese subjects which I’ll define as operating under the Japanese flag, aka a captured P-40 flown by a Japanese pilot would be kosher

*Cross-overs are welcome

*Pre-started are fine as long as they’re under 10-20% finished (light assemby)

*Any ‘roll-over’ subjects from JGB XI are welcome

* No cut-off date for entry, you can enter on Dec 30 if you can build the model in a day

And most important have fun guys and gals!

Sure Nick, I’ll put you down. And that’s cool, first airliner we’ve had best I can remember.

BTW: what brand and scale is that? Sorry, I don’t know squat about civil aviation kits.

Hi Gamera, Put me down for Tamiya 1/72 Ki-61 Hien for starters…

14

Okay, got you changed out!

15

I’ll try to finish my Tamiya 1/35 Type 10 from the last group build.

I appreciate everyone who supports me on this forum. I have a lot planned for 2023 but I will join to support you. I have plenty of kits I just need to find an easy one that won’t slow me down. I’ll let you know what I come up with. Put me down as tbd.

Greysnake: My apologies- I updated the roster with your Type 10 last night but forgot to state on here that I’d done so. In any case you’re updated and ready to go!

Brandon: Thanks man, you’ve always been ready to support me and everyone else. Don’t sweat it, if you don’t have time to get to something here it’s fine. I’ll put you down though!

And a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS folks!!!

Tamiya 1/48 Ki-84A Frank, I have two, can’t have that. Should be a simple one.

The Tamiya kit a pretty easy build from what I recall. If I remember correctly the wing root does need some filler.

I’m in with the Tamiya 1/48th A6M2 Rufe I didn’t get to this year.
