Kawasaki Ki-61-A-1

I have been a member for a bit now but I believe this will be my first post to the site.

This is one I made for a group build on another site a couple years ago, the simple premise that the IJAAF had to press other fighters into service as float based fighters using available equipment.

It is a 1/48 Ki-61 with M6A1 floats.

That looks great! Almost like a single seat Seiran (and not too far from reality)
