Burt, that looks fantastic! It's a great kit, I know. Years ago I've also built the T-2 (as aircraft No. 152 from the 22. Hikotai) together with the F-1 (from 3. Hikitai). I love that aircraft and still have one in my stash waiting to be build. Was it easy for you to get that orange paint opaque? I remember that I had some problems with it, though I used a white primer.

Happy modelling!

Thanks for the compliment Torsten. Yes indeed this was a great kit. No I had no problem with the orange color as I used MM International Orange and it sprayed and covered very well.

Burt,
Yet another perfectly built, painted, and decaled jet. Well done.
