#082 Mitsubishi A6M Zero on the Zuikaku
Building the amazing little Sweet 1:144 kit of the Zero with Flight Deck.
Notes
The Mitsubishi A6M Zero was a long-range carrier-based fighter aircraft.
I picked up this kit for only ¥640 at LeonardoレオナルドLG ２, mainly because I was keen to try as I’d heard really good things about Sweet kits. And oh my, it is a nice little kit. The detail is very impressive for the scale, despite this being one of their older kits.
