My son Nathan and I started building these a bit over a year ago and then had them sit around for a while before we got back into it at the beginning of this year. Nathan is 16 (15 when he started this) and we built them together, allowing me to teach him how I build models. Here's the WIP thread. We have finished now.
He chose to build his as a U.S. Navy A-4B and I built mine as an Argentine A-4P with Falkland Island invasion stripes. We forgot to put nose weight in and so his is a tail sitter and mine is nearly so (I think the bomb is just enough to hold it down). So he's going to be building a small carrier deck base for it where it can be pinned down.
