This is a 1/48 Aichi D3A1 Val made by Hasegawa and was a dream to build. All markings were masked and painted except for the tail codes. If you’re looking for a quick build Japanese subject, I can highly recommend this one. No fit problems at all. Thanks for looking.
Cheers…Jerry
Excellent build Jerry [tup]. Nice to see a clean build instead of the extreme weathering often used on IJN aircraft. Thanks for sharing.
Regards, Rick
Very nice!
Great build, Jerry. Very colorful!
Nice one Jerry. Off the beaten track subject with a colorful scheme. An extemely well done change of pace.
Nice build, Jerry. Thanks for the pictures.
Hi, Val. You’re a beauty. Your complexion is excellent.

Superlative finish Jerry! Thanks for sharing. [tup]
Very nice work jerry. You got all your stripe painting in for this year.
Beauty of a D3A, Jerry! Its one of my favorite dive bombers. You 've gotta love the Spitfire-esque wings!
Nice build, Jerry. Your paint finish is exceptionally smooth. [tup]
Fantastic! Is that Alclad II Dark Aluminum?
Thanks fellas for the kind words.
Bondoman…the only Alclad is on the prop. I think it is reg. aluminum.
