A-10 by Tamiya, First wingy thing project

Ok down to the short strokes. And.....my biggest worry ...she's a nose sitter.....tah dah!
The top side is fully decalled, and I have given her a coat of my favorite Pebeo artists matte varnish. I now just have the bottom decals to do. add the pitot tube, the pilot's mounting ladder and the small matter of some 3785 rockets etc.

Lots of bits that could have been done better, but so far I am reasonably pleased with how it's turning out.

John,
Looks good from this angle! The subtle finish is very effective. I commend your efforts.

Looking good John, nearly there now. Camo has come out really well, and the streaking has tied it all together.....

You've done a fantastic job on this one John. The last tank I built had 5 decals, I have an F16 sat waiting to be started and there are decals all over it, probably as many as parts in the kit :smiling2:

Looking good John and as long as you are happy that's all the matters.
