John F Smith Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 This is the display of both the Tamiya and ICMTH 1/32 scale A6M2b "Zeros" side by side. Hope you enjoy them. The builds of both models can be found here on the site. P.S. I will be doing the Bf 109f from this same company and the companion injected molded kit from Hasegawa (Priller's aircraft), but not right away. As much as I love these cutaways, I need a break!!

Sparzanza Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I would never build one of those skeleton kits... not in a million years. Respect! Two gorgeous kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasticsurgeon Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Very nice job on the two zeros! I would never build one of those skeleton kits... not in a million years. Neither will I...... and no full resin kits, no vacuform kits and no kits with loads of photo etch! Sparzanza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Wow they both look great. Clothes on or clothes off - not sure which I like better.... Awesome work though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywifehatesmodels Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) This was a great build to follow, even though skeletons usually aren't my thing. At the point of your "mishap" I was truly heartbroken. But, your persistence in putting it back together was inspiring and the final product is outstanding. I don't think I could ever do it! WAY TO GO!!! John Edited July 22, 2014 by mywifehatesmodels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John F Smith Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Thanks a lot, guy. I very much appreciate your kind comments. The PE kits are a challenge, that's certainly true, but I don't think they are beyond the skills of anyone here on this forum. Nevertheless, I understand that they aren't everyone's "bag". My personal hate relationship is with scratch building so I guess we all have something about this hobby which is on our "no way" list!!! Thanks again, and Best Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero77 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I love that, both same aircraft, but so different models. The skeleton is incredible, it really makes me want to try to build one, too. (even if i'm not too much into PE). I was not aware that they also make a 1/32 Bf109? I thought there were only the Zero and the Mustang.
