| Re: not so picky and love my Witty Wings
I just picked up a Witty A6M5 to see for myself. IMHO, both Witty and Dragon Zeros have pluses and minuses and they end up even. WItty's mould is crisp, but the panel lines are tough to pick out under dark paint. Dragon's Zero has the opposite problem: horrible, uneven panel line inking. Witty scores on this point. On the other hand, Witty's cockpit has no detail and -- this is my biggest gripe with the Witty Zero -- there's no engine. Peer past the props into the cowling and there's nothing there. I like to see cylinders. Dragon, hands down. But Witty's undercarriage, albeit fixed, is better than Dragon's.  For me, at least, they break even. |
I'm gonna go left field on this one and say my Zero diecast preferences would be 1st) FOV, 2nd) Dragon, 3rd) Matchbox, 4th) Witty in 1/72 scale. 
I just love the crisply rendered panel lines and overall proportions on the FOV Zero.
