Nice one Jerry. Got that kit in a trade with Cory and it's a real looker.

Good catch Jerry. Built the same kit under the Italeri label - very nice, and impressive detail.

I'll third that, very good kit.

That's the boxing that I have but with the missing decals that I was talking about in my PM Andy. Would've fit the bill too!

I haven't bought this, but I should, shouldn't I?

Catch22 · Aug 2, 2012

Do you have the kit?

vikingBerserker · Aug 2, 2012

I might have some of those if you are interested, they are 1/48. They came with one I had built but ended up making it from the Phillipines Air Force.

Which company makes a good 1/72 scale peashooter?

Do I need to have the kit?

Revell and Pavla Jim - the pavla kit the better of the two (the Revell has large rigging holes apparently, intended for thicker thread according to a net review)

Thanks Evan, I'll put it on the list!

Just got back from P.G. with these....
Going to exchange this for the A-4C in the group build(See my group build for reason), if I may.

Can never walk away with just one purchase. Torn between option 7 and 8 though I have always liked the Norwegian version.

Some paint, brushes, and 10 sheets of various thickness plasticard. I'm going to try the Citadel Thraka Green Wash for green interiors.

Very nice!

How are the Citadel washes?

fubar57 · Aug 5, 2012

Hey VB. I have Sepia, Mud, Black, and now the Green. They work great over a gloss coat. I'm going to try the Green on my P-400 in the Start/Finish build.

Good catch there!

A4K · Aug 6, 2012

Very nice Geo!

Some one built that Argentinian A-4B in a model magazine I have. Will reread it to let you know if there's anything to watch for, but I think it built up very nice even OOB.

Nice stuff there George. Is there such a difference in the two 'scooters'? Always did get confused which Skyhawk was which!

fubar57 · Aug 6, 2012

Terry, the best I can figure between the B and C models is the avionics changes and the ability for night and adverse weather missions. Evan(A4K) is probably the best qualified to correctly answer that for you.

Geo

Airframes · Aug 6, 2012

So no huge external differences?

fubar57 · Aug 6, 2012

Compared the separate nose pieces and the ones from the C are slightly longer.

Excellent finds George! Always liked the A-4.
