The Prodigal Scale Modeler
This is the first model I've finished in 15 years. To my credit, the last one I finished, a super-detailed 1/20 Tamiya Tyrrell P-34, won a 1st in category and a special award at the 2005 IPMS Nationals in Atlanta Georgia. But that was also [...]
Mitsubishi A6M2b Zero (Zeke) – Tamiya 1/72
This is the Tamiya 1/72 Mitsubishi A6M2b Zero.
Tamiya 1/48 A6M2 Zeke
This is my second completion for the Empire of Japan group build. This Tamiya kit isn't too bad for how old it is. Minimal part count makes it a quick build. It does lack detail but makes a good kit for practice. I built it OOB just adding [...]
A6M2N Rufe, 1/72 Revell,Lodela{Frog]
Another obscure kit from the cheap seats. I found this in a hobby shop which sells older kits.
Lodela's/Revell 1/72 Nakajima Rufe, the kit date backs to the late seventies and it's supposed to be Frog molds. A very basic kit, more basic [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2 Zero
With Louis Gardner's article series on Japanese aircraft colors ramping up ((link)), I thought I'd deliver my take on the early war Mitsubishi A6M2.

The initial production of the famous Zero were up to the highest standards,to the point pilots rather be flying one of the old fighters due to its superior operational [...]

New on the hobbie, with a little help I get there!
Hello from Brazil (Brasil [...]
Sweet 1/144 A6M2b X7 plus Flight Deck Section
My last project, painted Hinomaru insignias and colored belts/stripes, pitot tubes added with hipodermic needles and wire. Little nice kits but it took me longer than expected to finish these up, too many things to mask, Deck section has 5 [...]
FineMolds 1/72 A6m5b model 52 ZEKE (Nakajima built)
My last completed build for 2018. FineMold's example of the late war Zeke. I'll have to get around to building one of Tamiya's 1:72 A6Ms to do a fair assessment of FineMold's offering. Fit was very good, detail very fine, but lacking in [...]
