ancient mariner Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Like this a lot.Really nice build and finish. One question though did you have a reference photo of the aircraft? Not critising,I only ask because I haven't seen really peeled paint on Zeros unlike many of the IJAAF aircraft. If you have the pic I would love a scan as I also have a Zero working it's way down the build list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bordfunker Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 That's a good Zero. Many of the late war IJN machines didn't receive the same primer protection as they would have done earlier in the war, and therefore often ended up looking quite rough. The classic book 'Meatballs and Dead Birds' has some excellent examples. Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
