Hi Wayne!Very nicely done, and absolutely not trying to detract from this fine piece of work but the Zeroes aboard Akagi and the other carriers of the Kido Butai around Dec 7th were in pristine condition, very clean and a nice shiny glossy appearance...the pride of the Imperial Japanese Navy.
look forward to the rest of this masterpiece diorama!
Done!
Many thanks for your replying gentlemen!
Hi Wayne!
The final touches in the model will be the antenna and its mast and a semi-gloss varnish..A gloss varnish would look out of scale in my opinion.
Cheers to all!
Panagiotis.
OK,OK,8) I'll fix the camo finish..Now after all this I don't like the look of my model either!No worries sir, note in the posted image of EI-120 the lower wing and it's highly reflective finish, one of the few period images that actually show the real glossy finish.
Yes, that is right!if I remember correctly there is one expansion joint near the island on Akagi...just can't remember if it's at the front or rear of the island...
...update, rear of island.
Thanks a lot Wayne! Time will show..For the time being here are some photos of the finished Akagi deck..I didn't weather it much as the time is set some weeks before December 7th..really looking forward to this dio....!
