Takamota Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Kit manufacture: Hobby Boss 80323 Scale: 1/48 Type: A-10A Thunderbolt II Extras used: Aries resin Cockpit Set #4353 Paints and colours used for camo: Gunze H303 Green FS34102, Tamiya XF-26 Deep Green, Tamiya XF-69 Nato Black And Alclad Flat Coat for the finish. What a great build, thoroughly enjoyable. Found the fit of parts to be pretty decent really with no great issues in the build. Aires pit went in with minimal effort too which was unusual. Only requiring the casting blocks to be removed and a light sand at the sides. The only plastic requiring removal for the cockpit to go in was the hud and coming area. More than enough weapons supplied in the box too. I went for a well tooled model but still have loads left for the spares box! Here are the pics so hopefully you like. And there she is all done. Thanks for looking. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcdonnell Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Hello,Tom - My compliments to you on a beautiful looking build of your 'A-10'. I love the quality and detail of the paint and finishing and commend the clean 'classical' look.She is a resplendent looking tribute to the type.All the best,Paul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parabat Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Holy Hawgs! Great build, nice to see a 'tooled up' Warthog. Looks brilliant in European One, a real Cold War warrior if there ever was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
