I don't know if I have all the rivets correct, especially the cowling flaps. Still some adjustments to be made but this is how it is so far

Wow. The rivetting is fabulous. Do you have a real Zero to work from? Or do you work from one of those walkaround book?

Do you have a real Zero to work from?
Yeah, I don't want to brag but I have 5 or 6 Zeros laying around in my back yard
I try to get a hold of as much info as I can get. I've got 8 books on the Zero although none of them has everything I need. Plus I've hooked up with a Zero expert for this project, and he's got a number of friends that also have a wealth of info...on top of that, none of them let me get away with any mistakes!
I just got a list of things in an email tonight of more things I need to fix

Superb work, as usual, BH. If Jesters is buzzing you too much, tell me: I'll send a Groupe de Chasse to blow his Kokutai out of the skies. (How would D.520s fare against Zeroes? I guess it's mostly a question of tactics.)

I like how you've done the radiator flaps. Avoiding a scallop, but keeping a similar impression.
