regarding the camo pattern my dad followed the Hasegawa instructions, but then he looked at pics of the original aircraft on which the camo differed slightly, so now he does some minor corrections

the ordnance, six Mk.82 Snakeeyes and two LAU-3 pods

accidentally threw away the IFF antenna parts, so my dad made them with plastic rods

Is your dad going to use Hasegawa decals? I used one of isradecal's more recent Skyhawk sheet and the white on the roundels is a bit 'thin', allowing the camo colours underneath to show through. Something he might want to watch out for.

thanks for the info

he only uses the Hasegawa kit stencils, the roundels are taken from the Hobbycraft A-4E/H kit, only the aircraft number and unit emblem will be from Isradecal

after the Fitter is done, now the Skyhawk gets closer to the finish too, decals done

the stencils are from the Hasegawa base kit, the roundels from the Hobbycraft A-4E/H kit, the numbers from the new Isradecal number sheet and the squadron badges from the Isradecal Mystere sheet
