The second kit which is already before the completion is the aircraft carrier IJN Zuikaku 1944 made ​​by Fujimi. PE sheets and wooden deck are made by Fujimi as well. Guns are made ​​by Alliance Model Works and Veteran. The biggest problem is with the aircraft as the shape of Fujimi set is very inaccurate, so I bought set of Zeros for aircraft carrier Akagi and use it here. The remaining aircraft - type Val represent the second wave of the raid on Pearl Harbor from the deck of aircraft carrier IJN Shokaku.

This got my attention. Very nice work! Not too many 1/350 Zuikaku builds on our boards.

Oh, I know. Keith has actually snuck in a couple on in progress photos but, I believe he's overwhelemed with customer deadlines right now.
