Hasegawa 1/48 Aichi D3A1 Val
Click on the thumbnail to go to a full size image.

Once again nobody seems to agree on what color these airplanes were, I did some research and finally concluded that I might as well just go with the mixture in the instructions, most of
which is Khaki.  The proper Japanese name is hai-ryoku-shoku.  Apparently it was glossy at first but weathered rapidly to more of a lighter grey.  And that's all I have to say on that. 
Another great Hasegawa kit.  Another 4 hours masking and painting canopy segments.
