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, [...]
The Mother of all Zeroes…prototype #1 (ichi-ban)
Hasegawa's limited-release Zero prototype in 1/48th scale. Built this one a while ago when first released, an easy build. AFAIK there are no images in existence of this machine so we can only hope Hasegawa got it right. The engine/cowling [...]
A6M5 Zero, Revell, 1/48
Here's my new model, a Revell 1/48 Scale A6M5 Zero. This is a small, simple model, a grand total of 28 parts, 36 if you count the 9 decals I used! Of course it's rated for ages 10 and up, so I only barely meet that criteria, by the slim [...]
Hasegawa A6M2 Zero 1/48

After two months of work, this is the final result.
Used lots of aftermarket stuff: Eduard cockpit interior and flaps, True [...]

1/72 Tamiya A6M3 Hamp.

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!
Airfix 1/72 A6M2 Model 21 Zero
A nice kit. Horrible wheels...get yourself some resin ones if you build this. I used Eduard canopy mask..and will never NOT be able to use them in this scale again...I likely would still be masking the canopy without them!
Hasegawa 1/48 : mitshubishi A6M5 /52, ZERO. ” Saipan Island” June 1944.,
Made out of the box with Eduard belts, painted with WEM colocoats.
Portuguese Zero, I dont know if this is going to work and if It does I will tell you the story.
Ah Yes it worked, well the story is is that a very good friend of mine, Antonio Sobral from Portugal came here to California on business and I met him and we went to a hobby shop when they were having a sale. We Both saw these cheap Tamiya [...]
