I think it could be a real contest-winner with some extra work. The wheelwells and main gear are very basic but the surface detail is really nice. I suspect I will build another of these with the mottled camouflage! Then, too, a Hasegawa with the other armament style is also on the list........

Thanks, Daniel!

This one was actually started by an unknown modeler and I dedicate its completion to whoever it was that first started it. He/she did a good job on the cockpit structure scratchbuilding and subassembly work and it was simply up to me to complete the job. I only hope that it turned out as the original owner had planned....

But now I am working on a different Kawasaki--two-cylinder instead of two-engine, the powerplant in my tractor........ :-eek I was getting ready to do some lawn mowing Saturday when the tractor stopped running. It turns out that the camshaft gear has broken, so the engine had to be removed for the repair process. Now I wait for the parts to arrive......
