Love it! Beautiful work! 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻 I have this kit as well and started on their J2M3 (JT45, 09145) a while ago, I better get on with it and finish her! You just popped up in my feed, so I subscribed as well! All the best from a Swede in Glasgow, Scotland! 👋🏼
Gotta give Horikoshi-San credit. He could create light fighters like the A5M Claude and A6M Zero, but he could as make Interceptors such as the J2M Raiden and A7M Reppu at the same time. Talented engineer, that one.
You know, Tamiya IJN Light Grey does have that greenish, hempy hue to Zero grey when you look at it closely enough. Except you could argue with 10 different modelers and get 10 different opinions and mixes/shades about it.
Too bad the Imperial Japanese War Ministry and Mitsubishi hampered the development and production of the Raiden at every turn. All production efforts were put towards the Zero and Betty, along with cramming precious Sakei radials into only them.
I liked the streamlined cowl and cooling fan in the Raiden. I think Jiro Horikoshi was taking notes from Kurt Tank on his Fw-190s.

That Tamiya LP Silver is about as nice as Mr. Color #2 Super Fine Silver.

太好了，有台灣人拍的軍武模型製作動畫影片了。
感謝您的支持，我會更加努力製作
Mitsubishi Green /= Tamiya Cockpit Color. Mr. Color 126 = MCG

You want to win at life, pounce wheel and punch every rivet. The Raiden is lousy with them.
Tamiya > Hasegawa for wing root and wing->fuselage gaps... 😵💫
