russ c Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Hi everyone, Whilst I`m in the process of finishing my USAF Spad, I thought I`d show you my Revell-Monogram Skyraider that I finished this summer. done as an aircraft of VA-145, The Swordsmen aboard USS Intrepid Not quite OOB as I made a few `improvements` such as widening the circumference of the cowl with some plastic sheet and lots of filler opening the cowling shutter to display the engine and replacing the kits dodgy wing tanks with Zuni rocket launchers from a Hasegawa weapons set Kit decals and odd bits of wire here and there. hope you enjoy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bri48 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Stands out above the crowd Russ, lovely piece of work! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryker Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Very nice build there Russ. One slight recommendation would be on the fuel tank. There appears to be a bit too much wash there on the nose and any fuel residue would be of a pinkish hue. Other than that, good work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
