Looking excellent Jim. Do the dials and instruments come as decals with the kit. They look really neat.

Thanks Gary. Yes, the IP dials come as three separate decals. Tamiya did a nice job here.

Thanks Todd, Thomas, Erik and Ali for the encouraging comments. The build is now complete with no issues to speak of -- just the normal cleanup. Main painting is also complete. Primed with Mr. Finishing surfacer. Underside is Tamiya AS-2 IJN light gray and topside is AS-21 IJN dark green 2, both decanted from the rattle cans. Shading and fading was applied before a thin application of the final color to blend. The aotake landing gear and flap bays really stand out. Gloss coat with Tamiya X-22 and ready for decals.

The A6M5 Zero is now complete. This machine has a real menacing look to it. I'm happy with the build but I think the kit decals are too thick. I'm thinking aftermarket decals or masks would have been better. Thanks for looking.
