Zero-1 is now on its gear. It's a bit wonky, but it'll do.
zero-2 is progressing quickly. Hoping to get some paint on it this weekend.

Well, I didn't manage to get much done on the Zeros at all over the weekend. Certainly no painting, anyway.
I'll try to get some work done this week - if my stupid shifts will allow me, that is!

I've managed to get the two Zeros painted up, but I've had a SERIOUS lack of mojo the past couple of weeks. I've barely touched any plastic lately - even the "simple" Spitfire project I was working on has ground to a serious halt!
However, I will try to get my Zeros done in time for the deadline - or at least one of them!

I've decided - a little late in the day, of course! - to build Zero-2 with its gear up and mount it on a stand. So, to that end, the Zero now has its gear doors installed. Means I'll have to fill and sand the spinner, mind, but that's not going to take long.
I promise I'll get photos!

Zero-1 has got some decals on....
It's going to need a lot of weathering done, however, since the aircraft in the film is very much a veteran - lots of aluminium showing through the green!

From most photos of weathered Japanese planes that I have seen, there are as many exceptions as rules regarding patterns of weathering. They both look the business to me. Nice work Daz.
