1/72 A6M5 Model 52 Zero ATAIU SEA British markings

Post by Modelcrazy »

Hello all. I just finished the A6M2 Type 0 Model 52 Zero in ATAIU SEA (Allied Technical Air Intelligence Unit South East Asia) BI-05. I like Japanese aircraft very much and was fortunate to to find decals for it from Rising Decals.
The kit is the Hasegawa kit and went together quickly and easily as most 1/72 Hasegawa kits do.

Now those are markings not commonly modeled. Very nicely done! :shoutout:

Man, you've got it beat up and weathered spot on! I agree, a scheme not done before. Well done!
