| A6m5 Model 52 Japanese Zero 1:48 This is my first Japanese Zero made by FM and it's not bad looking little fighter. For the price i got it for ...You can't beat it...Thanks to Pappy. But i did do some little work on her...Like trim the canopy area so it would fit a little better and took off the landing gears ..They had screws holding them on..Very easy to take off. And i will use the 1:48 plastic Zero model kit doors to cover them while it's in flight ..Along with a Corgi stand....I had to drill a little hole in the bottom for the stand and i can use the extra Carousel1 rubber plug to fill it when i take her off the stand and put the gears back on.So you don't see the hole. Here are the pictures. JP ![]() ![]() ![]() | |||||||||||||

| Re: A6m5 Model 52 Japanese Zero 1:48 Nice job on that canopy JP (man you got that fast -- I mailed it Saturday!)... For the price it ain't a bad model, and it definitely looks better after your mods! | |||||||||||||

| Re: A6m5 Model 52 Japanese Zero 1:48 I concur with PappyB....nice job it is! At least FM/Armour was kind enough to provide cockpit details on that bird. JP, you must put a pilot in the cockpit. ![]() | |||||||||||||

| Re: A6m5 Model 52 Japanese Zero 1:48 I do have a pilot for it.. I used a extra Carousel one..the paint was still drying when i took the pictures so i didn't put him in the cockpit. JP | |||||||||||||

| Re: A6m5 Model 52 Japanese Zero 1:48 Kudos to the work you did on it and the fact that you know this bird's beauty angles. Plus it's hard for an A6M5 to look bad... | |||||||||||||
