RalphSarc Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Anothe vintage Revell kit added to the "Basement Air Force". The kit while having its challenges was a pretty straight forward build mostly OOB but added seatbelts and cockpit details not supplied in the kit. I took artistic license and painted the forward engine cowling blue just to break up the camouflage a bit. As the kit came without decals I used leftovers from several kit. I scratch built the engine cowling door rods and the wing safety support rods. Hope you all enjoy my Revell Vintage 1982 1/32 A-1A Skyraider. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawman56 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 You did a great job Ralph! If I hadn't followed your build, I'd have no idea this was a vintage kit! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphSarc Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 You did a great job Ralph! If I hadn't followed your build, I'd have no idea this was a vintage kit! It's a shame the kit was discontinued years ago. You can still find them on eBay but in their day these kits were the AirFix 1/24 Typhoon kits of the day!!
