Gentelmen, after long hiatus from modelling world, here's my first finished model in 2 years,,, it's academy 1/72 A-10A kit... the kit itself was a bad kit... took me almost 1 month to fix everything... so many filler was consumed, so many putty and sanding job made this wall thinner than the real one... the canopy didnt sit properly but i gave up fixing this..... just wanna finished it and move on with my life

i was doing this for a local club desert storm GB last week but unable to attend coz my wife was in labour.

Anyway, here's some photos... pls ignore the marking as i knew it;s wrong for the 1991 conflict.

Nice, you did a pretty good job with the poor kit.

You did an awesome job for a crap kit, love the EURO paint job, soft and blends in nice.

Happy Modeling,
Joe
