Very nice, I like it 👍

Thanks Sebastian and Rui. A late 1944 zero needs some battle scares in my opinion.

J- planes rule 😁

Scrolled through your wall a bit and your models are getting better with every build. This Zero looks great! Love the pic with the big scary 'Hellcat' 😉

Album info

A practise kit to try some new things and improve my airbrush skills.
I also tried to rescribe some panel lines and adding some riveting. I really need to try again in the future because it didn't workout in the end. Made alot of mistakes.

Modifications:
- Styrene sheet instrument panel
- Machine gun charging handles
- seatbelts
- wire detail on landing gear legs
- Radio antenna.
- Clear landing lights.

Mistakes:
- Bad rescribed panels
- Bad riveting
