Martin Bishop (Bish) ran a Falklands GB on FSM not long ago and I built the Victor for it. Lots of interesting info in that thread.

Re: Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build
The Tamiya A6M3 model 22. The paint scheme was the thing I most wanted to get right on this one, as there is a much published photo of it showing the random mottling and a unique pattern on the forward fuselage. That photo is the basis for Tamiya's box art for this kit. I think I got close but getti...

Re: Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build
Two more Zeros slid into the display cases today, the Hasegawa A6M2-K and the Tamiya A6M3 model 22. The Tamiya kit was a gem to put together, the Hasegawa kit was less so in comparison but it is a high bar.
