Hasegawa 1/48 Kawanishi N1K2-J Shidenkai - Compact Reproduction of a WWII Fighter

The Hasegawa 1/48 Kawanishi N1K2-J Shidenkai, nicknamed "George", recreates a prominent Japanese fighter in clear scale detail. The model highlights the aircrafts characteristic profile and functional surfaces in miniature.

Accurate Parts and Interior Detail

The kit contains precisely moulded components that preserve panel definition and small fittings, with cockpit assemblies that allow careful modelling of controls and instrumentation for an authentic look.

Build Difficulty and Display Options

Recommended for those with intermediate modelling experience, the kit benefits from careful gluing and seam finishing. Finished models display well alone or as part of a period diorama.

Is Hasegawa 64717 supplied with decals?

Yes, decals are included for marking options, but paint and adhesives must be purchased separately to complete the model.

How long does assembly typically take?

Assembly time varies with skill and finishing detail, but an intermediate builder can expect several focused evenings to complete seam work, painting and decaling.

Any tips for getting clean panel lines?

Use fine sanding and light filler sparingly, then rescribe any lost panel lines. Thin washes and gentle drybrushing emphasise the detail without obscuring fine surface work.
