Trumpeter 1/32 A-1J Skyraider

Post by PaulN » Tue Jun 23, 2020 9:09 am

Hi

As requested here is my effort of the USAF version of the A-1 in 1/32nd :thumb:

All done with Xtracolor and Alclad varnish as per usual

I have to say , if you havnt already guessed :lol: the three tone Viet Nam camo has to be my favourite scheme :thumb:

Cheers

Paul :thumb:

Thanks Paul, looks superb. Ooh look a Corsair.

Fantastic model, expertly presented!

Do I spy the tail of a Keflavik F-4?

The Skyraider has always been one of my favourites - the original 'bomb truck'. South East Asia camouflage is one of my favourites too, although it's a close run thing between that and the US Navy light grey and white scheme. Do you have an A-1 in that scheme Paul?
