Thanks Peter. Sometimes that works best as it did in this case!

Yes indeed, there's always other areas to keep busy on while waiting for paint or whatever! As I well know. LOL

Always something! I'm sure you will get this sorted out soon Peter and get that Spit done! 🤪

I appreciate that Phil, thanks! I'm glad to have this one finished.

Thanks Paul!

Thank you Hubert. I appreciate the nice comments and I'm glad you like the results of my efforts!

Thanks Gaz! Me too! LOL

Thank you Kevin!. 😄

All done with this one!

Saved from the SOD. This is a nice kit and can build up to be a very attractive model. I'm pleased with the way it turned out! The only after market I used was the Quinta cockpit set. Painted with Testor's MM. Decals are from C.A.P. decals. I decided to keep it clean except for some exhaust stains. I hope you like the results of my efforts. Please remember to click on the first pic for best resolution and to view as a slide show. Thanks.

I had one of those a while back but sold it. Maybe I'll get another at some point.

No more SOD for this one Gaz. Nearly finished and should have it done in a day or so.

Thanks Bill. I'll add some exhaust stains but don't plan to do any other "weathering".

Looking good Kevin. Nice work.

Excellent diorama Gaz! Well done.

Coming right along now Kai. Decaling in progress so it won't be too long now!

Thank you Peter. I plan to attach the landing gear next then start decaling.

Progress as of today.

Have fun Ernie! It should make a really good looking model when all is said and done. Especially with all the COSTLY after market stuff.

Me too Peter!

I know what you mean! I feel the same way. We don't need to waste good model building time on crummy kits unless we just GOTTA have it! LOL

I look forward to seeing it when the paintings done. Gonna be a beauty! (Hot here also. Yesterday's high was 103.) John

It still built up to be a good looking model Jerry. Nice work on a high cuss-factor model!

They are C.A.P. decals and I have no idea as to where I got them or when. I think the squadron was on Yankee Station and used those just for fun. There were two others named King of the Load and Puff the Magic Dragon. Firewood 201 and 204. Maybe others but that's all that are on the sheet.

Here is the one I'm doing. VA-165 Boomers A-1H.
