  • Hello friends. Time for a WWII fighter aircraft. This time is the Japaneese Mitsubishi A6M5c Zero from Tamiya in 1/48 scale. This old 1977 kit is very good, cheap and easy to assemble. I added some additional upgrades for the cockpit and minot homemade modifications like riveting and more. Likn to the rivet blueprints are here hgwmodels.cz/en/148-scale/305... . Hope you like it.

    Looks great. However there was a military decree that the Hinomaru should be spotless. Even up to end of hostilities they painted the rising sun almost daily to keep it pure since it was the symbol of the emperor.
    My grandfather was a Thai mechanic and worked on Japanese aircraft from 1941 to 1943. A few maintainers both thai and Japanese were beaten or withheld food because the Hinomaru was worn and was considered shameful and disrespectful to Hirohito.

      there's plenty of historical photos of chipped hinomaru, it's the same old story as the ノルナ on the landing flaps area, people keep saying that no one stepped on it even tho there's evidence of that area having bits of paint chipped off. You could argue that the roundels wouldn't be as heavily damaged as the one in the video, but not that it should be perfectly clean

      @Joey_Ramone_96 I'm going by what my grandfather told me. He worked as a mechanic on Japanese aircraft during world War II in Thailand 1940-1942 then on thai aircraft Japan sold them until 1949. He Said crews were beaten or withheld food if the markings were blemished.

      @@AreeyaKKC and evidently not everyone cared to enforce it, since some planes were left like that, there's people who take what you said as an absolute truth, like a guy in this comment section that said it's inaccurate to make a chipped roundel, both are accurate representations

    Very nice job on an old standby kit. Even Tamiya kits from the 70s are good. Better than some brands of recent make.

    Nice work. Built this kit about a year ago and was pleasantly surprised how well it went together and how it turned out for such an old kit. Then again it's Tamiya. Can't go wrong there.

    As a late war A6M5, in this case an A6M5c, some details are off, unless reference says different, it used a different armoured pilot seat, provided in the kit, also it used a single machine gun on the cowling, the other has to be removed. Apart of that, I like the process, it inspires me to build the same kit I have in my stash ^^

      Their recent A6M-5/5a is even better than this one. I have one on the bench, now and it is awesomely well done and a joy to make. (So is their recent A6M-3/3a kit )

    Areeya has it right - the Hinomaru had to be spotless and undamaged. The ground crew could be and often were punished if they allowed the emblems of the Rising Sun, which was not only the Imperial symbol, but sacred to the Shinto religion. And by punishment, it was by beatings or flogging with rods.... or both.
    As this a late war Zero, I won't criticise the level of weathering and chipping, but up until 1944 ALL Zeros were primed under the paint, which was a big aid to paint adhesion. (This was for corrosion protection as the Zero was intended for carrier use). After The Marianas Turkey Shoot there were so few carriers left that Zeros were mainly land based and they saved time and cost (and Weight) by not priming the Zero from then on. If you do any Zero pre May of 44, you should moderate the weathering and chipping quite a bit, but not entirely.

    Docela sis s tím vyhrál.😁 Metal modrá se skoro vždy dávala na vnitřky japončíků.Jinak co již zesnulý kolega na ně měl a to přímo metalickou modrou, trochu má jiný odstín a skutečně měla metalický nádech Tamiya X-13. Jinak když mícháš tu černou s umbrou pálenou,připadá mi výsledek ve spárách vždy moc tmavý, jestli by to nechtělo spíše panzergrau,prostě něco světlejšího,vyzkoušet si to na kusu plastu, aby ta paneláž nebyla tak do očí bijící,
    či to kombinovat,že u tmavé barvy nechat černou a u světlých barev udělat paneláž světlejší? Nevím jak to dělají jiní profíci
    co sem na netu koukal, jestli ty spáry nějak "přefouknou". Většina to dělá standartně jako ty "načernit" a pak setřít.
    Děsně to vypadá hlavně u moderních stíhaček a těch šedých barev, někteří byť jsou dobrými modeláři, to pak mají jak po 5 ofenzívách ve 3. světové🤣🤣

    Weeren't the flaps covered in fabric (hence no underlying aluminum) ? I know that this is the case for a number of other Jap fighters. Great build though. I grew up on ancient Airfix and Tamiya kits. Great memories.

      Never heard of fabric-covered flaps, but certainly the ailerons were covered in fabric.
