Kinetic EA-6B Prowler 1/48


Recommended Posts

Hi all, To far gone for the Carrier Group build but not to be given up on, here at last is my Kinetic EA-6B Prowler with Avionix Cockpit and TwoBobs Decals.

 

This kit gets a hard time from the internet reviewers, don't know why because I had no dramas from it apart from looking at how to tint the canopies a slight yellow colour. In the end I stood back from this idea as I found reference pictures of these aircraft with standard clear screens, happy days.

 

I've not gone to town with weathering as its a CAG aircraft displaying all thats good about the squadron, even the Plane Captain gets a sizeable tag on a visible side of the airframe. 

 

Anyway, its yours to view..

Hi there,

 

Looks good.:yes:

Nowadays when everything is packed in the boxes we should not complain about some extra work.

There were times when there were NO DETAILS AT ALL on some kits.

 

Good job,congratulations.

 

Regards,Laz

Hi Ian, she looks very tasty indeed. Re the yellow on the canopy glazing, is it not gold to aid with canopy demisting? If so a light dusting with Alclad gold will give that effect. I've done it on a model car to simulate silver tinted windows.\

 

How is life treating you?
