Thank you Harv!

Thanks Harv. After looking over the kit a bit more I have come to the same conclusion. So.....it's next up on the lineup! LOL

All done. Check finished works.

Finally done with this one. I didn't want to do a Korean War a/c so I decided on a post war Air National Guard bird. Colorful markings, etc. As the subject I wanted to build had no 1/32 decals available, only 1/72 and 1/48 from Echelon, I decided to get one of their sheets and do some re-sizing using my scanner and laser printer. It turned out to be a bit of a bear to get the markings sized right and the colors right but I managed to finally get it done to my satisfaction. Paint is several shades of Alclad with Testor's MM interior green I mixed to suit my eye. Wheel wells, etc are Testor's Zinc Chromate. The national insignia decals are from Super Scale. The cockpit and seat are resin from AMS. The correct style air brake is a result of a swap with Mark (1 to 1 scale) a while back. I hope y'all like the results!!!

Looking at a build review on the "other" site it appears this will be a bear to build. Feeling a bit deflated. 😐

I look forward to seeing some paint Peter. VERY nice work as always!

I appreciate that, thanks. I'll get started on the rest of the decals today. 😀

Thanks Martin! I'm pleased that you like it.

Thanks Peter! I had to re-do those stripes several times to get them right.

Thank you Hubert! I'm glad you like it.

Thanks

Thanks! Yes, the ANG guys nearly always had some flashy markings.

Thanks Gaz!!!

Thank you! Thanks Harv!

After much trial and error I finally have the resized laser printed decals in place. Kinda pretty I think!

Thanks, I appreciate that. I'm just getting started on decaling using some I resized and printed on my laser printer. The subject hasn't been available in anything but 1/72 and 1/48 before so this will be a unusual one for 1/32. Red stripes.

Thank you Peter. I'll get started with some decals soon.

Thank you!

About done with painting.

Thanks! I will begin doing some texturing later today.

Thank you Rob. Very much appreciated.

Thanks Gaz! It had it's moments! LOL

Nice and smooth. Now for some texturing, etc.

First application of Alclad on.

It's a very nice kit Rob and I think you will enjoy the build.
