Extended the rear decking forward into the cockpit area to give myself a lil more leeway for sizing...

Thx, I recently picked up a 5th 1/72 Shinden (Why did I do that :? ) I do plan on doing some larger scale Shinden's in the future, just need to keep chuggin' through this project though.

This kit is on the list -> https://www.zoukeimura.co.jp/en/product ... en_cl.html
I love the insane level of detail!

Does the Nippon brand LS make a Shinden at one time, as their kits are very well done and detailed I have several of their old kits still in box for resale in thew future.

IDK if LS ever made a Shinden, in the past I had 5+ unbuilt LS Ki-46 Dinah, 3 versions. I built the LS Ki-109 & Ki-67, both have been lost to the sands of time.
