Fairchild A-10A Thunderbolt, in the Area 88 manga, this is Greg Gates his second aircraft as his A-4E Skyhawk (to be built aswell at a later date) proved to be insufficiently effective when fighting the Land Carrier.

the kit is the Heller 1/144 A-10A Thunderbolt II, combined with homemade decals for the tail.

allthough its completed, i ran into a big problem at the end as the canopy got smudged when applying the matt coat.
im currently trying to fix it with Humbrol clear, in worst case, im gonna have to rebuild this one at another time.








on the bench:

-all kinds of things.

Looks good Nils, had to remind myself that was 1/144, well done  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Very spotty..............  ;) ;D

Bur really looks the part.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
