I needed the "thrill of completion" that I was missing because of several slow moving builds, so I brought this one out of the basement.  I built it out of the box, and it went quickly as it was a very nice fitting kit, regardless of its age.  I made the antenna mast from scrap PE and the antenna is Uschi Super Fine.  The markings were painted on except for the tail code, which as you can see did not work well.  I will replace them later, the code is actually for a B6N1 anyway as I found a photo of that airplane in one of my books.  The computer that runs my ALPS is in the shop and I don't have good luck with stencils for letters that small.  Alclad ALC 101 base under Gunze IJN green, the bottom is from a still surviving Aeromaster Nakajima IJN grey.
