A few months ago I saw two articles on ARC about the A-7H (Heller 1/72). The two aircraft were nicely built-up and painted in SEA camo with Greek insignia. Well, this one is the third A-7H on ARC, but this time it is the Esci kit with Greek markings, built some years ago…

The construction is completely OOB except from the FLIR pod which is made from scratch.

The model is brush-painted with Humbrol enamels.

Weathering was done with lighter tones of the original colors and some black dry-brushing.

The aircraft is heavily loaded, so that it looks nasty and aggressive. The idea of the non-symmetrical bombs load setup came from an A-7H (Hasegawa 1/48) that I had seen in a local model magazine in the early 90’s.  

Your comments about my model will be appreciated,

Happy modelling, 

Yiannis
