Finally a bit of progress despite today being out most of the day. I’ve dug out the Minenraumer and finished off the last few details. I also did a little rattle can spraying this morning and got some Tamiya white primer on. I normally use the grey but this wasn’t available last time I bought some. It’s more of a flat white at least. For a change I am doing small light coats and this seems to be working better with another coat needed tomorrow. I’m happy so far.

In other news the Ki61 is going well. It’s been a long while since I’ve done a Tamiya kit and I’d forgotten how well they are engineered. The cockpit is done and the wings are together but need to be sanded. As the cockpit is designed to slide in from underneath the fuselage the next step will be to get that glued.

I used the Tamiya decals seat belts mostly because they are there.
