Nice result!
I recommend changing the 'teaser' photo to one of the completed model then more people are likely to see this build.
You are right Gorby : i also expected to add some comments on the pics, but i didn't manage to do it !!
Thanks.
Album info
In february, a club member had to leave us for some weeks due to a scheduled stay in hospital : before leaving us, he pointed his big Zero kit and said : "No problem if it has disappeared when i'm back !" The building had been started the wrong way and things went worse as weeks were passing...
I understood the message and, as it was a nice aircraft, i decided to give it a second chance. I aimed to make something watchable, but i did not expect to make a masterpiece of it (anyway, i cannot make any masterpiece ! 🙂 ) - I had to unbuild it first as nearly everything had been wrongly built : my friend followed the notice, but this old kit from 1970 is not an easy one at all and request a lot of work to be build correctly. Second, it was my first "big scale" as i only build 1/72 kits, and it allowed me to discover some specific problems i will have to deal with when i'll build my bigs 262's...
The A6M5c is very different from all other Zero models, and of course from Trumpeter's A6M2 at the same scale. I guess the chinese kit is more detailed, accurate and easy to build.
Pics now !
