Re: Daz's Navy Type 0
Innard bits have been painted, so I'm starting to assemble the cockpit parts.

Cockpit assembled - looks a bit rough here, I'll admit, but it isn't as bad as it appears!
Fuselage assembled.
Fuselage and wings.
Seems a nice kit so far - no nasty surprises, anyway.

Re: Daz's Navy Type 0
It certainly seems to be going together without any snags. Good stuff!

Re: Daz's Navy Type 0
Wings and tailplane are now attached, with focus now shifted on to the engine bay.

Re: Daz's Navy Type 0
That's looking really good. Quite an improvement on the old one which had about 29 pieces I think.
Got this one to build, and I am looking forward to the new Airfix Japanese models. I wonder if the will ever get around to some of the bombers.

Well, it's more the case that I'm not going to get anywhere near a hobby shop in the next few days, and I want to get this one off the board before I start anything with elliptical wings, and dark green looks the closest that I have...!

Re: Daz's Navy Type 0
Given the Airfix scheme is for a training Aircraft you could also paint the undersides yellow orange.
