One build When I'm teenage .. 30+ years ago. Old Tamiya kit still good and deserve to build. Ready to sell to new owner. Now here yet shared with the rest of the world. P.k

Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi A6M2b “Zero”

HI guys this is currently on YouTube, the inbox review and the final review, I really enjoyed this kit and with very little mishaps and filler. BTW this is the old 1970's kit! (link) (link)

Nakajima A6M2N "Rufe", Tamiya 1/48 scale

This model starts with a website I had a long time ago that was started as a place to store all the photos I had taken during my barnstorming airplane mechanic days. An email arrived one day from a gentleman in Japan named Kenichi Kimoto, [...]

1/72 Tamiya A6M3 Hamp.

I have just completed this today. This is my 1/72 Tamiya A6M3 Hamp. A very nice kit in 1/72 one of the best I have built to date. As you can see I wanted to paint it in the same markings as the 1/48th one that I built years ago. Painted [...]

Video: Tamiya's 1/72 Mitsubishi A6M2b Zero

The eagle-eyed among you will/may have noticed the starboard aileron actuator is missing - that's because I knocked it off just as I was posing the kit for its photo session!
