Hi,

Some pictures of Fujimi's A6m2 that i finnished some weeks ago.
The kit itself is old and hasn't got many detail. (almost no cockpit).It was mainly build to practice my airbrushing skills

Hi LordQ,

From what I can see, your airbrushing is pretty good. The paint appears smooth and opaque. It looks like there may be some overspray onm the green splotches on the wings, but the exhaust stains look tight.

A couple of things. This model Zero's exhaust was a pair of pipes on the bottom of the cowl--no exhaust along the sides of the fuselage.

Go easy on the gunpowder stains, even big calibers didn't seem to streak back far.

Keep up the good work!

Is this the 1/48?

I didn't know about the exhaust pipies. As i said it is a practicing aircraft.

Well done... I'd also have to say that you seem to be doing just fine with your air brush!

Thanks for sharing your Zeke with us!
