Mitsubishi A6M3 Type 22

Hairspray?? hm...going for the really worn out look I guess?

Yup it sure is MP. This airplane was based at the konoike airbase in the Ibaragi prefecture and looking at other planes from the area it appears they were not in the best of shape most of the time. This base was also used to train Kamakazi's so perhaps that explains the shoddy state of this one

I want honest opinions guys. I got this far so I want to ask two things before I carry on and do the whole thing:
a) Is this too much
b) Does it look natural enough

Please be brutal, it's my first go at this so I really don't mind constructive critisism because it'll help me for the next one.

My opinion for what it's worth. It's not too much but it would look better if it was more random.

Cheers, Christian B)

I like it!! REally I like it! I think Chris is right in that it should be more random also, get outside the panel lines
