1:48 Grumman A6E TRAM Intruder


RMCS

Recommended Posts

The A6  Intruder is one of my all time favourites. When I found the camoflage scheme that the VA-165 Boomers trialed in the 1980's ,  it was a done deal. The scheme and decals were produced by Fighter town and I managed to source a set of these out of production sets.

 

Using the fantastic Hobby Boss A6E release along with a resin cockpit from Wolfpack I used my Silhouette  Cameo 3 cutter to reproduce the markings in a mask format to make this iconic aircraft.

lovely work Richard and very dynamically posed.  I love models built in this configuration despite what the purists say.  I have been thinking about getting a cameo for a while now, but the software kind of scares me off.  Hw hard is it to just scan a decal sheet and then get the machine t cut it.  Do you have to know your way around software drawing programs to use one?

 

Cheers

Thanks Bruce. I found it quite easy in the end, after staring at it for 2 weejs! There's a great FB page with lots of great tips and plenty of you tube videos.
