This one will be rough, little to no good detail photos, no good drawings and no survivors.

I sympathize. This is a nightmarish situation when you're trying to be accurate. Good luck!

Well a bit more on the positive side, at least no one will be able to tell you that what you have done is wrong.

[BLOWHARD]

Oh, I almost forgot to mention, there is a captured French version

Blowhard,

you have my sympathies, as this is not an easy ship. I did this one for a magazine article a while back, and am still working on the wing undersurface!. btw, the grey colour is accurate as sampled from actual skin sample. Use my profile as you wish - I can send higher res by PM if you wish. I can assist with one major modification. Note that the A6M2-N did NOT have the roller brace behind the pilot - note also the metal rudder which had a unique pattern - the A6M2 as I am sure you know had fabric covering. HTH

I am currently working on an A6M2,

AH! Very nice, and yes, that color looks pretty good. I've got 2 pieces of Zero skin myself.
It looks like you used the Nohara drawings from Aero Details 7, right?
I'm using an excellent side photo as well as drawings from a Zero Gakkon book (they seem to be as accurate as you can get) and I'm filling in the smaller details with the Aero Details drawings and what few good photos there are. I just wish there were as many Rufe survivors as there are Zeros around.
About the "donor" plane, I haven't touched it yet. I'm still working out the general shapes of the add on parts.
Thanks for the offer Mac, I'll take you up on that when I get into trouble
