This Fujimi kit is now done — really just a simple olive drab over light grey finish, almost everything per the kit instructions even if that doesn’t appear to be 100% accurate according to information I found on Japanese colour schemes. The only thing I did different was to paint the underwing stores (bombs? fuel tanks? I don’t know) yellow instead of light grey as instructed, because the box art shows them that colour too. This took three or four coats of paint, as yellow doesn’t exactly cover well. I decided to finish it as if the real plane had just been painted — I kind of intend to do a Ki-43-II or -III in more typical highly weathered finish in the future, though, which should be a nice contrast.
