Hasegawa 1/48 A-7D Corsair II


Recommended Posts

Not my finest work but I think I’m done with this now. Hasegawa 1/48 A-7D Corsair II.

 

mostly OOB but some details in the cockpit from Aires, Eduard.

no ordnance in the kit other than the 2 AIM-9 Sidewinders you see here; the rest of the load from US Ordnance Set 1 by AMK.

paints by AK Interactive.

Decals by Furball Aero-Design, this is A-7D 71-0354 based at Korat RTAFB in June 1973

don’t look too closely at the Mk82 bombs, I forgot to fill the holes before painting 🙄

Thanks, glad you like it.

 

I had a right ‘mare with this one, starting with the ill-advised choice of plasticine as my masking material. I had to strip it right back to the plastic & start again, this time using Mig’s Camouflage Masking Putty.

i do like the SEA camouflage pattern from the late 60s/early 70s.

looking for an F-4E from the same period in 1/48, maybe 1/72 once I get my eyes fixed. Probably an F-105 too
