Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa or "Oscar"


I finished two planes for the 2015 Theme class in the 08-open in Stockholm. The theme is Indochina Vietnam 1945-1975.


Indonesian People's Security Force



A Fujimi 1/72 scale Nakajima Ki-43-I Hayabusa "Oscar".

Royal Thai Air Force

from the Royal Thai Air Force, Bangkok 1944.





I wasn't going to build anything for the theme class as I don't have any interest in the Vietnam war. But then I remembered that I had a couple of Oscars’ in the stash that I bought because I found some odd schemes at Empire City Decals.
I needed to relax with some easy "out of the box" builds so I choose these. Actually, I had lost interest in them but now I got a reason to build them. My airbrush refused to paint thin sharp lines, so the paint job is crap, but the models will probably go in the trash bin after the show, so it doesn't matter. The Indonesian plane doesn't fit in the Indochina theme, but I thought that I would build it at the same time as the Thai plane.
