A6M5 HEI “Never GIve UP!”
Hello. This is my first work presented on this website.
A6M5 HEI Academy - Saburo Sakai "Never Give Up!". Yokosuka Kaigun Kokutai ヨ-137 Japan 1945. An amazing story locked in the plane of the famous pilot Saburo Sakai San. I added some parts like the Eduard photo-etch cockpit, the resin Quick Boost pilot seat, the Cannon and the Aber machined barrel machineguns. Ammo Mig radio line. Decals from HMD.
Very nice and welcome to the forum
Thank You Sir!
Welcome to site. Great build.
That's a greyst Zero, Lis!
Hard to believe it's only 1/72!
Welcome aboard!
Thanks to everyone for the nice comments! I am very pleased to be with you in the group. If you have any questions for construction, I am happy to answer
Smart looking Zero, Lis, it definitely looks bigger than 1/72, all the extra detail you added really makes it a stand out model. I liked it.
Thank you for all the nice comments. I made two mistakes in the model. Canopy decking the cabin is Nakajima Geen color, it should be faded gray. The propeller spinner should have a wider red part. I made model before A6M5 Hasegawa, and I didn't have some informations about right painting.
Great work! Welcome to the gang...
Beautiful work, and welcome!
Thank you, I hope that I will be able to show off my next works 🙂
