- Full step by step build of Tamiya's 1/48 scale Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero fighter plane (Zeke). This is one of the lesser detailed Zero's on the market and unfortunately I couldnt find any photo etch parts for this particular kit. Quick build so I decided to weather it a little extra and dry brush aluminum to simulate paint chipping.
Paints (Acrylic - all Tamiya brand):
XF-11 (fuselage, wings)
X-2
X-7
X-11
X-13
XF-1
XF-10
XF-16
XF-21 (underside)
XF-71
Tamiya primer

I’ve built this kit and I gotta say it was a great
Nice Build of an old Tamiya Classic. Modelers have been asking Tamiya to re-make it with today's standards. This particular model of the Zero is the most important one to me. They did come out with a beautiful A6M2b in 1/72. The good news is that Eduard is releasing in December 2021 a new Zero A6m2 in 1/48 Scale. First release will be a 2 pack with lots of decals to build different versions of the Tora Tora Tora mission in Pearl Harbor.
👍 this one was quick and basic. I'll have to check out Eduards version
Great job, I just bought myself that same model, I'm going to start it in a few more days, I'm just waiting on the paint to come in.
Thanks and have fun with your build
Great. I have 2 of these kits and am just starting to build one in IJN grey with low detail to hang from the ceiling. I will use this video as a guide. The next will be the dark green camo with more detail and open canopy.
Micro Soil! That really brought out the detail. Great build.
Thanks, Micro Sol works like magic...love that stuff
Ah yes, the old cellulose sponge effect. An oldie but a goodie! Nice build!
Please be aware on early war a/c that control surface were typically covered with fAbric so you won’t want to put aluminum scaling in their surfaces. Otherwise very nicely done.
Thanks! Rookie mistake. Won't happen again
塗装が綺麗でとてもいい！😍

Interesting technique for masking canopies. Thumbs up.
Thanks!
Awesome job, the Zero looks amazing.
Thanks 👍
Beautiful. Would love to hear some comments throughout the video though.
+Meleigha Kizer Thanks! I'll probably add some commentary and captions to future vids
Nice build man 👍😁
Thanks!
I'd like to see some graphics mentioning the colors used.
Ive got them listed in the video description
Hi, have watched all the videos you have posted, really great, but would be nice with either a caption or volume. Also maybe a list of add on parts would be a nice touch. All in all some really great builds, again thanks for the videos
Thanks! My early videos dont have captions but Ive started adding them on my more recent ones. Maybe one day Ill get some narration going. I usually put the add on parts I bought in the video description but for this Zero, it was a basic "out of the box" build.
Esse e o caça mais lindo e famoso do Japão da ll guerra mundial magnífico Parabéns.
Obrigado. É um avião muito lindo.
The control surfaces of the Zero were (like most fighters and bombers of this era) fabric covered. It would be hard to see chipped paint spots exposing the aluminum beneath if what is underneath the paint is fabric. Nice job despite this, and it looks like you got most of that off, anyway, in the end. Just remember that you cannot show the underlying metal if there is none.
Thanks, I'll be sure to research next time. I'm sure this won't be my last Japanese build.
Excellent work! By the way, what is the silver paint for the flaking paint effect?
Its just Tamiya X-11 chrome silver
@@ScaleModelAssassin Oh I see, thx!!!!
Fantastic work!
Thank you!
You forgot to sand down the fuselage seam line.
Cool accompanying music
Glad you liked it!
とてもお上手ですね！！素晴らしいです！！
ありがとうございました！
Vídeo incrível, parabéns.
Muito obrigado
Nice build
+AverageModeler Thank you!
verry verry nice build
Thank you!
Lovely Zero ! Wales UK
Thank you!
Great job! I had this kit since the late 80's in my closet and now, at last, I decided to build it! Back then, the instruction sheet was a bit different and the decals were listed using letters! I would like to ask you a question, if you remember: Is decal No. 7 (2 pcs.) fitted? In my instruction sheet they are shown to be placed on the cowling, assymetrically! Do you have any idea on that?
Thanks! I tried to find some info on that particular decal and could not. I don't think I added any decals to the cowling. I don't have the instructions anymore, but from a screenshot in my video, is decal #7 the thin white bars?
@@ScaleModelAssassin Yes, they are the two white stripes. In my instruction sheet they are named J and they are to be placed on the port side of the machine guns on the cowling. In the instruction sheet of your kit (61016) they are not mentioned to be fitted anywhere! But they are on the decals sheet! Additionally, in all the photos I found on the internet no modeller has fitted them! However, I found one and only reference to them on the internet, that states they were painted in later versions of Zeros for the synchronization of the machine guns. I wrote to you because I thought that maybe you had noticed this issue!
How do you glue on the cockpit, I always mess that up and get it super foggy. And my next question is what do you use to glue parts together once they’re painted, will Revell contacta professional glue dissolve the paint?
Id recommend PVA glue (Elmers glue) on the canopy and some of those small parts that you have to glue on once everything is painted (antenna, pitot tube, bombs, canopy, etc). I havent used Revell glue, but I think it will dissolve the paint if its like the other types of plastic cement. Sometimes Ill use Tamiya extra thin if I think I can apply it very precisely and not have it get on the paint.
This is a great vid and the final product was nice, but you forgot to sand down the joint seams. Otherwise great build
Thanks...and yep missed that bit
Good job!!!!!
Really nice build. But, one question. Did you apply your decals on a flat paint ? I didn't see much gloss on your paint.
Thank you. I skipped the gloss coat on this plane either by mistake or I was out of gloss spray and didnt want to wait 1 day to go buy more...cant remember. I guess I proved its not impossible to apply decals without glossing first, but Id recommend using a gloss coat, especially if youre going to use a panel liner. I doubt Ill be skipping it in the future.
Gooood job man!
Thank you!
That kit came out before Adam had fuzz on his dongle.
lol

Im tryin lol. Thanks for helping out!
I might be wrong, but last song isn't chinese?
Thanks for the tip about maskig/painting these canopy.
Glad you liked the tip. It could be Chinese, I was just going for an Asian song

Thank You.
what green color did you use?
Xf-11 JN green
@@ScaleModelAssassin Thanks! And for back of the plane?
Do you mean the bottom of the plane? Check the video description, I've got the colors listed there.
@@ScaleModelAssassin Thanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️
What colour green did you use to paint the top of the fuselage?
I used Tamiya XF-11 for the fuselage and wings (tops)
What did you use to clean up the excess panel line color?
Enamel thinner
@@ScaleModelAssassin Ok cool
And sorry for the other question but would enamel thinner hurt a gloss coat?
I've used it over future, Mr color super clear, and testors glosscote with no issues. It's always best to test out your new techniques on a scrap piece just to be sure though.
may i check what are the list of paints colour code use? am a newbie . thanks
+lchunleo Yep, I'll post the paints I used in the video description. Check back tomorrow and I'll have them listed.
👌👏👏👏
👍👍👍👍
What glue do you use?
I use Tamiya extra thin primarily. Also have model Masters cement and use gorilla glue super glue
0:15 and 5:08 whot is the colours?
At 0:15 it is Tamiya XF-71 and 5:08 it is Tamiya XF-11
@@ScaleModelAssassin Thank you very much!!! Hi from Russia

I tried lol
What color is that green on Vallejo colors
I don't know the Vallejo name/number, but the Tamiya green is called JN green (Japanese Navy) so check the Vallejo paint line to see if they have a similar named bottle.
Scale Model Assassin thank you what’s the underside
XF-21 Sky
Thanks ones again you’ve been a lot of help is that the color for the all white zero on the box
Im not sure but its probably fairly close if not the correct color. Have you checked scalemates.com? Theres a good chance you can find a pdf of the instructions which should have the various color schemes.
僕も買いました
それはシンプルで良いキットです
Wow cool job YOU HIRE ........
Thanks! Doesn't pay much though. Actually it pays zero lol

Obrigado. Eu tenho o Kawasaki Hien na minha lista de construção
No gloss varnish before decals? No putty? No oils? Pssh👎
Yes I should have used varnish, however I think the decals turned out fine. I guess you skipped the part where I used the putty :P
