Intruder503 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) OK. Finished one of the mini-builds. I decided to take a shot at some scratch building. First project was to make a couple 10L O2 Convertors. l used to have to fill these as part of my duties so I thought it'd be neat to include them. The A-6 carry 2 (EA-6B carry 3). Anyway after some quick searching, I was surprised to find the specs fairly easily. Here's what I wanted to make: Untitled by Chris Coggon, on Flickr I used some beads I found to serve as the LOX vessel. I used some plasticard to make the base. I used some wire to make the handle.

Intruder503 Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 Sorry for the lack of updates. Not much bench time lately. And even when I do, I'm just doing boring detail stuff like eradicating the kit's detail in the main gear wells so I can do my own and blending seams here and there. Not really pic worthy I'm afraid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofjim Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Great subject 503 I'm an ntruder nut and a little bit jealous because I haven't had the pleasure of building this kit yet . Glad to have you back in the hobby and you're doing a superb job. I never got to see an intruder in the flesh being in the UK . I did get to play with a prowler which was close...ish I suppose ? And her USMC crew were a lot of fun . Looking forward to seeing more as the build progresses ... happy modelling and ... Go Eagles ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
