tc2324 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I`m now calling this done, although I still need to order the Abe Lincoln decals. This by far has been my longest ever build, 8 months in total, although there was a 3 month gap inbetween. So with no further ado...., (Dedicated to Stewart - `The old un`s are always the best`) 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tc2324 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Thank you all guys for the kind comments. Not sure I have enough space for this one let alone another version Dave. Made a slight correction to the model as someone quite rightly pointed out that the KA-6D didn`t have the rear fuselage intake of the A-6E. It`s been removed and just some cosmetic work to do.
