Daniel MysakNice start👍. Looking forward to your build. Iยดam curious to see the pros and cons of the kit.

Oleg BogoleiI didn't dare to cut main weels bays, I just swore loudly at Trumpeter)
And there are some other remakes need to be done to make "A' from this model...

RonanMany thanks , mates 😉
For those who wish to assemble this model, it will be necessary to plan a little surgery on the main landing gear bays.
Other than that, I will say that the kit is better than Italeri or Fujimi but that's just my opinion. The level of detail is much higher than the other two

Juergen KlinglhuberJaw dropping detailing -as usally! All looks so easy and still perfectly clean and we all know how hard this is (especially in 72) - great job!

RonanMany thanks,
For the moment, I don't find any difficulty in building this kit.
I only used putty in the air intakes, the fitting is quite good

RonanThanks Alek 😉
Dearest readers,
For those who would like to build this model but are not happy about having to open the gear hatches, you should know that these famous hatches can be closed on the ground. Yesterday, I found a photo which attests to the thing in the book "lock on" by Verlinden. These hatches are closed manually by the ground mechanics during a prolonged stop of the plane, a sort of storage, this avoids FOD. Of course, this is very rare, but nevertheless it is possible. Also, it's up to you 😉

SkyhikerA tadpole I can see. But at least it's not a FROG or you would have your work cut out for you. 😉

Palo MBeautiful work so far, especially love the paint scheme with tan nose - that's what I'd like to build as well. I found some pictures with the "NE" on tail in the same paint scheme, so hope to avoid aftermarket decals. Just got the same kit, so have to follow this thread 🙂
Is the "Hobbyboss" in the album title a joke or a mistake?

RonanMany thanks, mates 😉
Trumpeter's decals are very crude, especially the lettering. The roundels are all the same size while in reality the wing roundels are larger than those on the fuselage. If you can, get the KA-6D intruder decals from Italeri which are printed by Cartograf.
