1/48 Hasegawa A6M2b-EII-175 from Lae Raid 1-21-1942

I finished this just a few weeks ago. I used the Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2 kit and cobbled up the number for the aircraft from the kit and some left overs I had in my decal stash. This was about a month after Pearl Harbor in the Rabaul area of the southwest Pacific. This plane was off of the IJN Zuikaku.
