Argentine A-4C Skyhawk (or not!)


Recommended Posts

Now i know this is not totally accurate, as i only found out part way through finishing this one off that the A-4C has a different nose shape to the A-4B! I was too eager to have a go at the unusual White / Green / Blue camouflage to notice the difference and reshape with putty. Oh well.. it was a fun build, gave me some airbrush practice and looks ok at the back of the display cabinet with the lights dimmed! 😁 Decals are from Xtradecal. Paint from Vallejo. Pin wash from Mig. 

I may compliment this with a Navy A-4Q machine that Airfix had just released next....at least that will be accurate!

Allegedly  it won't, as according to 'those in the know' the Airfix kit's nose shape is 'way off'....!! 

 

Doesn't bother me at all tbh as I think it's a lovely little kit and yours is a very fine example of one! :thumbsup:

 

Nice job!!
