"Dragon Slayer" -- a tribute to gamary

[Mangas]

Don't hate me for having so many unfinished projects... Maybe it's wrong, but that's the way I learn... And I can't do anythin' about it...
Unexpectedly, I feel kind of addicted to IJA/IJN stuff...
This is very WIP, just a most of basic shapes are outlined... It'll be a "B-29's killer" --Kawasaki Ki-45 Kai Hei Type 2 Toryu (Dragon Killer) "Nick" of The 4th Sentai that had a special attack unit, called Kaiten Seiku Tai, which made ramming attacks on B-29s during bombing missions over Japan:




Sincere regards,
Mangas.

P.S.: this is for gamary -- without him I don't think this would be possible... (at least so soon)...

Thanks, but others have helped you at least as much as I have.

By not finishing anything at the moment you are only learning up to a certain stage and maybe by seeing one profile right through to the bitter end could give you a fresh perspective and having a result you're happy with might motivate you on to finishing more of them.

I'm sure from what I have seen that you can produce a good finished profile, just have a bit more confidence in your work and let this be the one you finish, please?

I remember everything! Don't you worry, guys... Everybody will be credited! Even Jesters!

But I don't like my own artwork... Erm... I mean I never 100% satisfied with it... (is it normal or do I have kinda of inferiority complex? )

Nevertheless, here's an update: panels/rivets finished, as well as most of the details... (Can't w8 to apply camo to it! )



By the way, I'm sorry to say there's no such guys left in the world... Only remains... That's sad to know...
...No color pics, no descent walkaround...


Sincere regards,
Mangas.

P.S.: To Inky: yes, this will be out...

[gamary]

I'd also suggest you add more highlight, especially on the upper cockpit area. This will bring the shape out.

Looking good.
