It looks great! What kind of paint did you use to paint? I also want to build a similar kit in the future, but I can't figure out what colors to use.

Hello Duster, In this case I used Tamiya's XF-50 Field Blue, I originally painted it about twenty years ago... but I didn't have the complete Argentine decals. and the ones I had dried out over time, since at that time I did not varnish my models. So what you are seeing now is a retouched mockup.

I don't know why, but this is one of my favourite planes. Nice work!

Alejandro, thanks for the answer! I will look for an analog made of water-based acrylic.

Hello Duster.... the XF-50 of tamiya is an Acrylic Paint, anyway you can use Grey Blue (71.005) of Vallejo Model Air

I agree! A pity that the decals are of inferior quality.

Alejandro, оne more question: is it necessary to put a load in the nose of this model so that it stands and does not fall on the tail?

Great result. These planes made a big impact in the Falklands / Malvinas with their Exocet missiles.

Hi Duster. In this case it was not necessary to add weight to the nose of the model, because the main landing gears are quite far back in relation to the CG.
