1/48 Hasegawa Ta-152

I found this kit in a flea market in Chicago last year, I think it´s a little rare because I didn´t knew that Hasegawa made it. It came with an engine and the option to show it, it remembered me a lot to some old Trimaster kit.  I built the entire kit OOB.  I've just added some seatbelts that I made, a lot of wiring to the engine and wiring for the brakelines too.

Painting of the kit as usual was made with Model Master Enamel paints and my old reliable Paasche VJR airbrush. I used Micro Sol and both gloss an dull lacquer from Model Master for fixing the decals. As for the weathering I used  many oil paints ( raw umber, ivory black, titanium white and others) some black watercolor to make the seems viewable, some drybrushing of a mixed Testors steel plus raw umber oilpaint here and there, ant that was all for this kit.

Once again I´m very sorry about the quality of my pictures because I´m still using a very old Canon camera.  I´m seeking for a good digital camera so If somebody can give me a good advice...bring it on.
