What a beautiful kit of an incredible machine. I'm sure you'll do it justice.

Many thanks for looking in.

To be honest I am not sure how I am going to do this one yet. I have not thought that far ahead.

1/48 Skyraider...The Beginning

And so we begin.

Sorry, really wanted to get the Mustang done. That and the exterior paints are not ordered yet.

A little is done. Paint is on the cockpit, the seat, the instrument panel, and yes even...........the pilot.

Well there is the beginning. And that is all for step 1. Step 2 actually has the pit installed and the fuselage together.

Going to be a quick bit on this one.


All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged.

Good Choice, Joe!
Did the Kit come with the Denver phone book you need for the VNAF Version?
I do like me an old SPAD war-horse!

No. Bet it is an interesting story though.


"You gonna hang a toilet on one of the hard points? "

No. Going to go with just what is in the box.

Many thanks all.

I'm sure there is a story behind the Denver phone book... Probably similar to the story of my grandmotherusing the Los Angeles,Ca phone book to drive! (y) :laugh: :drinks
