Mitsubishi A6M3 Zero Type 22 - IJN 251 Kokutai - Hiroyoshi NishizawaSpring 1943

Bonjour dear iModelers, After my previous Corsair, it was logical to follow with a Zero fighter. I had on stock the Hasegawa A6M3 Type 22 model (JT17) for more than 20 years, therefore it was time to take care of it. I decided to make a [...]

1/72 Hasegawa, started 2006, stripped off the Gunze paint in 2013, repainted with MM 15050 and Tamiya enamels to replace the decals which fell apart and did not match the noted Gunze paint, the decals I did use were coated with MS liquid [...]
