István SzücsGreat start, interesting project of a rarely seen plane. What's your opinion of the kit?

Federico BurchiantiHi István. The idea is to build the kit "out the box", adding just the Revell pilots, the Wolfpack decals for the RVAH-12 Speartips 156628/NK/601 (Cdr. Pirate Pirotte, Cdr. Jim Cavress)
1974 - USS Enterprise (I have even the idea to build a couple of VF-1 Tomcats who have flown along that Vigilante) and scratch build a stand using a Citadel Flying Stem and Base and a couple of Green Stuff magnets N52 (I have done the same the ESCi F-111A that I have nearly finished as I have to fix the canopy).

Agustin PrellezoGood start. I completed that kit last year, also oob. I think it is a good kit, easy to build.

Federico Burchianti@Augustin. Yes, the assembly is quite straightforwardly. No issue found until now. It has been tricky to place the pilot/RAN on the cockpit, but the Revell models have the advantage the arms can be posed as one prefers, and I had just to modified them a little to resemble the US Navy crew.

Thomas KolbI will follow this with pleasure. Keep posting photos, it will be great fun to see how your Vigilante comes alive!

Federico BurchiantiGreat model @Oliver. As I'm making it on fly mounted, with the copies closed, on a stand, I haven't bought the very nice Eduard kit.
