Well, let me jump in the deep end and get three group builds behind. Going with Eduard's A6M2; either going to do Sakai's or one of the Pearl CAP birds off the IJN Hiryu.

I bought a jar of that green paint to do my tiny little 1/350 planes so I was thinking of picking up a zero to make use of the paint

Thanks, Steve. Robbo, the tail wheel bay is open and there is a large opening in the bulkhead behind the seat so I just sprayed all of the rear fuselage.

Thanks, guys! I started on the cockpit section of the A6M and Eduard supplied beautiful color PE details. They even provide PE in two different colors; Mitsubishi Interior Green and Nakajima Interior green since you have the option to build a Zero from either manufacturer in this boxing. The sidewalls are now done so on to the seat and floor, next.

This means you need a second Zero with two sets of PE Office walls look good Ian
