That's a great looking Zero Barry, it's nicely scruffy without going overboard.

5 star work mate.

That's one fine job you've made of this one,yes siree. Beautifully put together and a very convincing paint job,it looks great (as usual). Hats off to Barry!

Fantastic looking zero barry! its a great build and the weathering is just perfect for me. Personally I dont like to see jap planes too weathered , some of them you see look as if they are ready for the scrapyard! , i know that a lot did get really badly weathered and chipped but there were probably twice as many that didnt , it can be very easy to overdo it . Anyways yours is spot on , 5 star job , cheers tony

Very nice, Barry, very nice.

I've got the 1:48 scale version of this on it's way to me for sometime next year. If that build goes well (it'll be my first ever 1:48) I plan on getting a J2M Raiden "Jack" in the same scale.

Very nice. I like the faded decals, an area often over looked by many - especially me !
