Hi everyone just wondering how everyone's build is getting along, i am nearly up to date but have not made any progress on the engine. I am going for a total bare metal look on the airframe but was considering a painted engine and cockpit, any ideas guys or what is everyone else considering, all the best roy.

I am completely undecided about the skin. I am going to do the Aotake interior paint, and painted cockpit and engine, with light weathering, mainly to pop the detail. I should have subscribed to 2!  Mark Tired, Old, and Cranky!

Hi all,
Received 1st issue but not commenced build yet. I would be grateful for any Tamiya paint listings(internal and external) i may require.
I have looked thru'all pics. of construction stages and it certainly looks an interesting kit.

Hi Roy,
I'm fairly new here and received my first Zero package a few days ago - on a Sunday!
I reside in the UK, so this is unusual. Well worth the wait!
I'm also undecided on how it will look when complete. At the moment I'm toying with the idea of covering one half.
I will also probably paint the internal details as per the full size.
Cheers
Baron
