wdedig Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 This was not as bad of kit as many forum posters would have you believe. I am not about accuracy so >>>>Looks like a Skyhawk to me. Really cool markings Comments always welcome Bill
mquan Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 1/32nd Revell kit? No mention of kit nor scale.
ghodges Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 My guess is the 1/48 Hobbycraft kit? All I ever heard about it was soft interior detailing, no "super-fox" late model intakes, and the main canopy isn't sufficiently "blown" (which no A-4M kit has). Great looking camo! Looks like an Israeli Tinkertoy to me too! Love the intake covers! Did you buy them or build them? GIL
wdedig Posted October 16, 2011 Author Report Posted October 16, 2011 Thanks for the comments Guys This is the Hobbycraft Kit. The paints were all Testors Acrylics thinned with Tamiya thinner. Final coating was Testors Spray "Lusterless" decanted and thinned with lacquer thinner before airbrushing. I made the intake covers,H.U.D. ,Seat straps. It does have a soft interior but with the hood down you really can't see anything. Thanks for the comments on the Bugaboos. That was some masking residue and I brushed it off. Thats all I added. Cheers Bill

ghodges Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 All right! Another old-skool plastic masochist is on the loose! GIL
Mark Deliduka Posted November 6, 2011 Report Posted November 6, 2011 Man I remember building that kit about 42 years ago as a kid! I still have it! Can't wait to see how you do on this!
