Japanese Zero Fighter

1943

In 2017 my daughter and I took a return visit to Japan so she could see where she was born. While their, we visited the Japanese museum of history, which included an amazing and insightful look at World War II from the Japanese perseptive.

I picked up this Tamiya model as a companion to the F4 Corsair, as they were opposing forces in the skies over the pacific. Interestingly, the Zero was more susceptible to weathering and damage, which I tried to reflect in this build.
