1/33 Mitsubishi A6M2 "Zero" | 6th Kōkūtai, Rabaul, New Britain, November 1942

This is the repaint(my grandson's work) of an old Mały Modelarz from 1976. I built the original, historically inaccurate, plane in 2021, you can find it here: 1/33 A6M2 "Zero" (Mały Modelarz 1976)

New version portrays an aircraft from 6th Kōkūtai, Rabaul, New Britain, November 1942.

Hi Karol and hi everyone. I actually visit papermodelers almost everyday, so I can write a few words here myself.
My modeler's activity has been on hold for a long time, but it doesn't mean that I'm tired of this hobby anyway. I'm just at a point where I don't have much time to build anything or even space for new models.
I think there's an episode in every modeler's life, an episode of limbo.
Nevertheless, I have no doubt that I'll be returning to paper models, and from time to time, I might build something new.

Hi Kacper. Good to hear from you. We all have lives and hobbies like this are just a small portion of mine. Weather you build anything or not chime in sometimes. Your input is always appreciated.
