i have my shinden stripped and repainted the correct green. on the box, hasegawa has it with a gloss finish. all i can find are b&w pics. while the shiny paint looks sharp, i'm guessing it's wrong? any solid references? that is one hot looking plane. i wonder if the jet version would have been a good interceptor. what is the equivalent of luft 46?
I did a jet powered version. Pictures here

You'd have to scrounge around for the ancient Tamiya 1/72nd kit. I haven't seen one since the '60s. Got mine from a mailorder firm in Federal Way, Wash. around then. Mine's a semi-gloss Humbrol from the old Authentics range.
