Hasegawa 1/32 Kittyhawk I - by Tom Cleaver - Los Angeles, California

Tom painted his kit with Tamiya Royal Blue mixed with Tamiya Intermediate Blue and Tamiya Flat White to get the right shade of blue for the undersides. The upper surfaces were painted with Gunze-Sangyo Dark Earth and Middle Stone. He reports that the BarracudaCals went on with no problem and he only applied stencils to the areas that were Dark Earth, since the stencils in the Middle Stone area were likely not re-applied after painting. When the national insignia on the left side was set, I painted over the lower forward quadrant of the yellow ring, which was done to all 112 Squadron Kittyhawks for reasons unknown to later researchers.
