Boy oh boy this looks fantastic ! I especially like the details in the cockpit and on the engine.

This one hits close to home, as I currently have a few A6M-3's underway. Some of mine are the model 22, while the rest are model 32's. The major visual difference is the squared off or rounded wing tips... They are included with a pair of G4M Betty's and a pair of Tamiya P-38's. Here's a link if you're interested. I have included some decent information here that might be of assistance to you.

This is some very fine work underway right here ! I'll be looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us next. Thanks for starting this build journal.

Thanks

Hi Bogdan! I can see you're doing extremely fine job. Cannot wait to see your progress! I've got the still good Hase 1/48 Zero type 11 and wanted to start it with this GB as Saburo Sakai's plane (a pilot that I admire). I am embarrased to say ...I could't find it in my shelf of doom, my friend...
I wish to locate it and start it. Your build is tempting me more and more to do so.
Excellent work!
All the best!

Great! I love the black-with-a-bluish-idea color.

Very nice work

Totally agreed with my friends @blackadder57 and @holzhamer: quality work that shows.
