Airman 1st Class
Hi to all
Finally finished, well known airfix ZERO, in colors and markings of V-103, pilot Saburo Sakai, Tainan Kokutai, Denspar Air Base, Bali, February 1942.
I liked this build as Airfix Zero is nice model with unfortunately to deep panel lines and in general somehow too wide fuselage which reflect also on wide cockpit which is quite obviously compering with Tamiya or Hasegawa models.
But at the end it looks as Zero to me and in deed it is nice relaxing model to build.
Colors are Tamiya XF76 with lot of different shades, weathered with artistic oils and Tamiya weathering pastels, with final cote of Gunze satin varnish. Dacals from Techmod, very old batch, hard to work with and with huge amount of silvering which i was not abble to correct fully.
Now pictures.
I hope you like it, best regards
