Nose added, it is clear this could never have been working this way. the cockpit tub is in the middle of the intake
Decals are being applied, the decals from the kit are disapointing, used a couple of spares for the hinumarus

Sticking to the Japanese theme, this was staring at me from my stash, begging to be build 🙂
Being a Meng kit, this will be a treat after the AZ kikka....

Always wanted to take a hand on the A6M8 by Hasegawa that sleeps in my stash for nearly 20 years now.

Very nice progress Jan 👍
Did I just hear Zero GB?! 🙂 I'm in!
@Daniel: Is that the A6M8 with resin cowling and so on? I use to have one but ended p using it for spares since I was not impressed with the quality of the resin parts. A couple of years back Hasegawa issued another A6M8 in all plastic (kit no. 09821) You can still pick one up for under 25,-€. Worth having a look 😉
