Agree, and it seems that Japanese aircraft offer plenty of scope for weathering/paint wear - great! Seeing all these has reinforced my idea of doing a 'Luftwaffe' Zero, but, from what Catch said, would it be Nakabishi, or a Mitsujama?! That trainer, with two seats, has the look of a Dauntless, don't you think? Great pics BTW Wayne.

Good stuff, the weathering jobs on these Zero's have been excellent so far.

I'm with Wurger. Think the first of the pair is done slightly better, but not much in it.
