Academy 1/48 A-4E/F Skyhawk

Post by pourquoi61 »

Well she is done and it is not bad for 40 year old kit, which I purchased for £12 on eBay.
The AGM-65s are not ready, I had a little trouble with them but I will put them on later.
So here she is and I hope you like her.

This was an easy and fun build, also it is about 1/3 of the price of a Hasegawa Skyhawk. Very good value.
Thanks for dropping by. :th: :th:
