JJ2016 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) 1:48 A-7 Corsair II - Bluehawks Gday BM Folk, here's my latest build, the Monogram 1:48 Corsair II from the early 80s. This is a very basic kit with very little detail so if you're thinking about getting it, I would recommend stocking up with extras. I added Eduard PE to this kit which gave the plane some better detail. Even though its an old kit, it was still quite enjoyable to build, no fitting issues to speak of and the decals, though aged, were still good quality. Hope you enjoy the build. Cheers JJ Only 1 page of instructions !! Starting off with the cockpit.... Prepping some white areas... Exhaust and fueling probe... Fuselage done, and cockpit black added.... PE added to cockpit..
