3 Zeros diorama

Howdy Folks,

Simultaneously built three Zeros (wingspans 9 inches) using different card stock thicknesses just to see if there would be a noticeable difference.
Except for one solid looking Zero model, more of the difference is felt in the touch rather than the look.

What to do with the finished three? Diorama! Poking wire into its paper fuselage resulted in a spinning Zero. Gluing a small wood dowel with its center drilled out made for a simple and secure wire attachment point.

Added two F4U-1 Corsairs (wingspans 3 and 3/4 inches) placed them climbing in “the blind spot”
from low and behind.

Title: THREE UNAWARE
or... Decoy’s?

Those two Corsairs could be climbing into a trap.
