1/48 Tamiya A-1 J Skyraider


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

this is another kit I finished recently, well known Tamiya's A-1 J Skyraider. Ever since I watched Flight of the Intruder, I wanted to build one of these :)

I just shook the box, and out it came, I just messed up some of the decals, so it'll never be a show winner. Still, I love this Spad.

If I could make a humble suggestion ( and if you want to tell me to get bent, feel free), but I think you need some oil on the lower fuselage, especially on the front of that centerline tank.  Skyraiders leaked oil like the Exxon Valdez.  Excellent build, great paint job.

Yeah, that's it. It's a Spad, 

 

Don't BS about shaking the box. 

 

That's a nice job.  You did well but yes more oil, lots more oil. 

 

A very pleasing model of an iconic aircraft.

Hello daneel,

WOW. I opened your pics and my screen was filled with vibrant colors on a splendid model.

Build and photography are very impressive. Regards, Orion.
