Booty003 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 1/72 HobbyBoss A-7E Corsair II, VA-27, USS Enterprise 1973. Yankee Station. I know that there are shape issues with this kit but it's something that I can live with. The kit has loads of detail and is very easy to build. Decals were from Print Scale. Little bit of etch used. The Starboard TER is loaded as to not interfere with the Shrike. Shown here with an asymmetric load for an Iron Hand mission. The Combat Workshop blog planted the 'SEAD' for this build and loadout. Check out the site, some great info on there: http://thecombatworkshop.blogspot.com/2018/11/making-sure-your-7-is-dead-on.html Cheers all, Phil 43 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 There's a major shape issue here Phil,the issue is it look's every inch the shape of a superbly built Corsair! Possibly one of the best I've seen in these page's the weathering is just right and colour look's spot on too. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan ferrando Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Very well done, fantastic subject. I’ve build this kit some years ago, and like you I didn’t care any shape issues.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovely Pig Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I don't give a stuff about the shape issues either. That is one brilliant sluf. My hat's off to you Phil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booty003 Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Cheers guys. I have a few more A-7 kits in the stash including Fujimi/Testors so it will be interesting to compare the shape when they are finally completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
