D3A1 "Val" Model II, Lt Maseo Yamaguchi, IJN Carrier Shokaku,
Pearl Harbor Attack, Dec 7, 1941 |
Very nice Val,
but with some overspray off the sides of the black anti-glare paint.
Here we see a darker than usual tan fuselage, and I wonder if this
should be instead the same shade in olive green. Don't know, just
wondering. Manufacturing quality is good overall. Pilots are from
a Hobby Master Kate model. So far I haven't had to hand-paint any
Japanese crew, but SOMEONE is missing a couple crew members. Notice
the difference in tans between this Val and the Corgi Zero. |
