Hi guys,
This is my shot-up version of the '1/48 Eduard A6M3 Zero type 32' (kit N°84191)
You can find the build log here : Link

I added a lot of damage and tried to avoid hitting any fuel tanks as that would have resulted in a fireball.
The engine has cut out, the tail-hook dangles and the rudder doesn't respond very well... It's a dead stick!

The kit was a pleasure to build, I did modify the landing-gear a bit to get it in the 'up' position.
The 'rising sun' base is not the most original idea but it gives that instant Japanese vibe which matches the Zero quite well.

Many thanks for reading & Cheers :coffee:
