IJN Shinano — Part 2

Tamiya 1/700 waterline

When I began construction I wanted to complete her with a typical IJNAS air wing for late 1944. After painting the aircraft and figuring out how I wanted to arrange them based on a typical strike package I realized that would work better on a subject with a history of operating aircraft. So I decided to simply show her on her fateful trip to the Inland Sea with no aircraft.

Those painted aircraft though will be used on a future IJN carrier.

Thanks for looking…
