Next batch.Starting with the Hasegawa F-8 Crusader 1/48 scale. Simple kit. OOB except for the superscale decals for VF-111. The Sundowners. The early kit came with a cheapy plastic carrier base. Better then anything I ever tried to make so I still use it with this model.
Nice kit. Go buy one. Do it. Do it now.
Next a couple A-4 Skyhawks 1/48. A Hasegawa A-4E from VA-152 and a Hobby craft A-4 C from VA-83. Both using superscale decals. Not to much wrong with the Hobby craft kit. And it costs about half the Hasegawa. Sure the Hasegawa is better, but I'm not rich. I used to have about 10 other A-4s all with AJ tail codes and all in 1/72 all since have been culled and painted pink.
Last some of the few 1/72 models I have left. A-6 Intruders. Mostly Italeri and the one with the wings down is Fujimi. Both very nice kits. Also a trio of Hasegawa Vikings. One using superscale decals the other two hand painted. Still presentable after all these years, but also soon to be culled I'm afraid. Shawn
