Beautiful. So much put into the build yet making it look effortless. This is what ageing new modelers like me need. Thank you.

@@yippeescalemodel1151 indeed and that is why I was so excited to see how great this kit can look because I have the same one in my stash. Practice first though on advice from a master. Thank you.

Nicely done. I like that you painted the insignia instead of using the terrible decals. You weathered the exhaust but didn’t include any on the landing gear. Wouldn’t they be in the closed position and have soot also?

Nothing wrong with this kit regardless it's an old mould. Very affordable for 1/48, with the eye magnet of a good paint job it still builds into a good looking model representation of the A6M2 Type 0 Model 21. Hyper detail is really unnecessary to achieve that. I mean seriously. Do you get down and count the rivets too and check to see if they are flush? People are such snobs today. I didn't find much scraping and filing necessary on mine compared with for instance an Airfix kit of the same era. Basic modelling skills today's generation seem to have missed out on learning gauging from some of the ugle neglected join seams I see on high detail kits which shouldn't be there spoiling all that detail. Whilst I build recent and high detail in 1/32 and 1/48 too, I've also built Tamiya's venerable 1/48 A6M3 Type 0 Model 32, J2M3 Raiden, Ki84-1a Hayate kits from the same era. All look the business once dressed up in their warpaint.

Thank you for the comment. Yes this is a very good considering the age and price. Excellent choice for beginners too Personally I don’t spend a lot of time on trying to make it historically correct. If someone really looking for a kit with good details Tamiya also has the 1/48 zero with newer tools. It’s a bit more expensive but it comes with rivets and more details

Great job on a kit that's older than dirt. What do you use to thin your Tamiya paint for airbrushing? Awesome build - thanks.

YipShifu Thanks. I’m trying to build a collection of all the significant aircraft in the early Pacific - 1941 through mid 1942. The only kits I can’t seem to find are a 1:48 PBY Catalina and a 1:48 Mitsubishi G3M Nell.
