You make it look so easy like it's your fulltime job. Gary S.

Long time no see. Glad your back in the game. Looking good. Gary S.

The landing gear is painted and the doors are attached. It will be displayed gear up though. The red tail on the Tony is masked of with tape and my home made liquid mask. Gary S.

Great camo job!! Gary S.

Thanks. I'm not picky. Gary S.

Looks like a great subject.

My mix of IJA/IJN gray green was sprayed onto the underside of the Zero and the ailerons of the Tony. Then the Tony's wing tanks were painted yellow and the tail red. Because of the silver undercoat, posted note paper is going to be used for a mask. Gary S.

Nice attention to detail. Gary S.

Turns out that the 1/48th scale Spitfire MkII kit by Revell not only is missing decals but also missing are the canopy parts. If somebody has a spare please let me know. Thanks, Gary S.

Rustoleum chrome silver rattle can.

An under coat of silver was sprayed on the Zero, then a coat of Future for paint chipping later. Gary S.

Yep, what MP said!! Gary S.

Looks real enough for me. Magnificent! Gary S.

The Zero's exauhts pipes were drilled out and the cowl flaps were thinned. White glue is applied in layers to fill gaps around the canopy then smoothed with a damp finger. Gary S.

I think I'm getting dizzy. Gary S.

Yea, that's what the American pilots first thought too when it was first encountered. Here's some pics. On the Zero, this is the markings that came on the decal sheet and that is in one of my books. There's a discrepancy between A6M5c or A6M5. Don't care. Here's how the tail cone light came out...

Both canopies are glued and snuggled down with tape. The camo and markings on the Zero that's going to be used have no white ring and a swooping up demarcation line. Gary S.

Here are some pics that make my point. Gary S.

Thanks!! I'm having some doubts about some of the literature about the camo and the white ring around the fuselage "meatball". Some people say that the Mitsubishi Zero'shad no white ring and that the demarcation line between colors went from the trailing wing straight back to the tail cone. That...

The wings and tail feathers are on the Tony. Some fit issues with the trailing fillets behind the inner flaps.On the Zero, a piece of clear spruce was glued on which will be whittled down to shape the tail cone light. Gary S.
