Hasegawa 1:72 A-7A Corsair II

Post by jonf45 » Fri Nov 26, 2021 11:03 am

Hi, 

Had this Hasegawa Corsair kit for ages, had no intention of doing it in this scheme, then remembered that the "A's" didnt carry allover grey!! So, reluctantly built OOB, very basic kit, some of the fitting was awful, and other bits went together superbly!! Finished using the Vallejo "US Navy colors 70 to present" set. No weathering, which made a nice change! The decals were a bit of a pain, maybe due to sitting in theat box for so long 


Anyway, a few pics:

Looks Ok to me bet those decals were fiddly around the nose and drop tanks.
