Tora Tora Tora!!!

No.126 of the Tora Tora Tora series is Aichi D3A Type 99 carrier bomber, Val, of the Midway Battle, flown by Takashige Egusa. This is a colourful plane and needed some effort to make it looks nice. Now, the props spin freely as you blow it, no need to use fingers. That little darn bomb kills me to build it (not to my satisfaction though).

@wireand paper, looks like you're a mind-reader linking to a satellite over Hong Kong, ha ha ha.

Very nice, I just saw the big wave developing, like the Hokusai

What the.... papermate, do you have tweezers for fingers?

[Vinalssergio155]

How did you do the bomb, covers and all that so small? Fantastic work again Papermate!

[papermate]

Thanks guys. I just got fingers to hold the tweezers and not all parts were built successfully in one go. There must be spares around handy just in case the first attempt fails.

Awesome D3A1, I like a lot!

Pericles, your 1/100 VAL for Murph's Models is just great. I like wings stretched out more.

Another livery of the Val is now up for your views.
And a group photo at the end.

Very nice Papermate,
In particular the family pictures!

ps: And I really liked your CalFire Cessna Skymaster in 1/72 and the Lancaster in 1/400!!!!
