SPA Modeler

I like it, will look good with all the ordenance in the end.

Thanks mlp, thats what im hoping. Ive never done ordinance before. Im generally a ww2 or display aircraft kinda guy and i prefer to give them a "clean" look. This should be interesting.

Looks great. My favorite jet...

Thanks Joe. Mines the Intruder followed closely by the Tomcat.
We all know the Gau-8 is the feature here. The plane is just an accessory. lol

The A-10 is sure one of my favorites. I made three tries on this Tamiya kit. Back in 1984 (age 11) then in 2005 and again in 2013. It's an old dog, lots of trashing bla...bla...but alway's love building it again! I think its the only model that I have made three times. Here's two of them if you dont mind me sharing

my 2005 version


my 2013 version

beautiful! I like the A-10, too. Neat a/c.

Very nice. Thanks for those, inspiration to get more done on mine. Im nearly ready to decal. I wanted to get everything painted and clear coated before i started. Ive got the insides of bits left to do and thats about it. And then weapons, lots and lots of weapons lol.

You are doing great, Scorpiomikey. the lizard sceme is my favorite camo. And I look forward to the finish model.

Cheers, Monty

It is exciting to anticipate the finished product. I will enjoy seeing this come to light.

Thanks guys. I had a bit of a woopsy moment over the weekend. I sprayed the red on the tail and i couldnt figure out why is wasnt spraying right, it would spraying like id thickened the paint, rather than thinned it. When i finally got the red down i want to unhook my airbrush and it turns out i was spraying at about 15psi instead of 30. I also didnt mask enough of the tail and had some overspray, easily cleaned up with a quick wipe from some IPA. Almost everythings painted now. Just weapons, the ladder and the ladder hatch interior to be painted. I want going to start decals tonight, but now ive got to get a tooth pulled. Joyful days .
