Hello, Jan! I see, you made the best of this old kit! Are the Hinomarus painted? Looks really cool overall!
The camo looks a bit as you used RLM colors, did you?
Great work!👍

Excellent Jan right colours or not, those on your example should be... 👍 👍 👍

Holger Kranich
Absolutely! I´m not a colorpope and yours seem to be just right!

Colour scheme is absolutely correct and the colour choice is irrelevant !! 🙂 🙂 🙂
Some Ki-43-II Otsu of the 25 Hiko Sentai wore these colour scheme in spring 1944, Hankow Airbase/ China.
With the personal code "00" on the fin you will get the aircraft of Major Toshio Sakagawa.
My modeller friend Takemi Hatori told me once, some sources confirm the circumstance the lack of colour at final stage of the war, so the jap. Army Airforce decided to use colours of formerly Airforces like the RAF.... 🙂 🙂
So this model is not only well built and painted, furthermore it is up to date!!! 🙂 🙂

So The Japanese had the same Problem as Germany at The end of The war. Thats why there will never be The "one and only" RLM color! And we are sometimes like artists, who Play with history😢!

As you said breviously in an other thread:
" .............doesn`t matter which colour is used, the main thing is, the model looks right!"

Holger Kranich
I don't have to add anything...😢🙂

Beautiful job with the airbrush! You have given Oscar a good case of the measles! And thank you for not showing 50% of the paint peeling off to reveal the metal underneath! 🙂

Holger Kranich
Haha, Very good, Bill! Some weathering a are "intense"!

Very bizarre camo scheme, I must admit I've never seen this before but it suits the yellow and the Hinomaru 🙂 (and it's a typical JG-camo 😉 )
