Sugita A6M3, anyone have it?

Curious how the worn paint scheme looks on this Zero, really hard to tell in pictures how it would look in the flesh.

Looks good in that photo. I always try to collect the Aces planes, when available, rather than go for the generic fighter.

Its also a clipped wing variant.. I just picked up the #25 Kamikaze Zero and I am VERY pleased with it..

I have this one and really like it. The green looks like it was applied by hand, but that's pretty much the way the real ones were. My only real grip is that the canopy frames look out of place since they are a different color. I'll try to snap some pictures later on.

Re: Sugita A6M3, anyone have it?

I love the worn look of this aircraft, but not too wild of the contrast with the brand new looking engine cowling and prop. I'm sure that was possible, as parts were possibly replaced, but I think it still looks odd.

Photos look great, slammin. I went to order it and it was gone, oh well.
