Mitsubishi A6M1 Zero Prototype Fine Molds 1/72

Bas Tonn
I'll take a seat. Is it correct that it can be build with flaps down?

Daniel Klink Autor
Hi and welcome Bas! Yes you are right. I assume Fine Molds modified the Tamiya kit in this way.

Again no Beaufighter, but hope dies last. 😉

Daniel Klink Autor
Beaufighter is projected further in the future 🙂

Hello ! You are on a Mitsubishi's prototypes serie, that is fine !
Did you choose n°201 or 302 ? There are few informations on those two aircraft, but there are informations. N°201 did not get the ventral fin at first : it came after "some" flights, and the 302 probably got it from the start as it was built a bit later. Fine Molds did an excellent studying job, those two kits looks perfect in the box : now your work will tell us if the building is an health rambling !
Thank you !

Cuajete
Great, Daniel!
I love this project and I see that for now you have the same boxes as me.
Good job so far!

Daniel Klink Autor
Thanks a lot Cuajete and Trannsall NG👍 Glad you ike it so far.
And yes Fine Molds did an excellent job on this kit. So did some washing and weathering. Tomorrow I'LL do the cleaning and the small parts and then clear coating.

Spanjaard

I would highlight the engravings on the Hinomarus again with a wash or colored pencil - currently the decals look like glued-on discs.

Daniel Klink Autor
Thanks Frank and Spanjaard, very much appreciated mates👍
@bat yes but i'll do this with pencil after the glat clear coat😉

Neil Patrick

No one does IJ airplanes quite like you. As soon as I saw them I said « those were done by Daniel, » 🙂

Such great quality and attention to detail.
