Airfix GB - Japanese Double Header

[Cimmerian]

Going through the stash I found these two.





As both the topside and the underneath are the same colour I figured I could save myself a load of paint stirring time by doing a double.

The Zero had a little more pre-build faffing about to do than the Val.



Then it's onto the easier stuff.









The new tooling Zero has a little filling required while the older Val is surprisingly good. Start painting the engines later then the fun bit begins.

Not really into Jap, and German aircraft for that matter, but seen as i have the Zero, i may as well buy the Val after your comments! Dinah out soon as well!

I have sanded the surface detail down as the rivets were a very similar to golf balls but it's a nice little model.

Thats coming along nicely.

[Cimmerian]

A bit of colour added to them now.

[Cimmerian]

Both finished, apart from a lick of varnish.





More in the gallery.

Very nice mate.

You should be pleased with these.

Thanks. Alan. I'm certainly pleased that my first builds got finished quicker than last year - That was August I believe.

[Tug 747]

Very nice build and they look great side by side well done Ken.

[Cimmerian]

Thanks.
