1/72 HobbyBoss TA-7C Cosair

Hi there, I finished this kit awhile ago and wanted to share. The WIP is here in another forum if you are keen to take a look.

I made a mess of the decals on the canopy. Lesson learnt; cut them into smaller strips next time!

This is my third aircraft I have ever build, not much issue with the kit itself, the panel line details are great (to some maybe an overkill) but I enjoyed the build and the painting process.

Painted using Mr Hobby and panel lines are done using enamels.

Comments are welcome, have a nice day

Nice! I do not have a photograph of a TA-7C with a sharkmouth but it is a nice looking bird.

Thanks guys

Just want to add a point here is that; other than the ejection pull handles on the seats, the kit is build out of the box. Its a great kit and actually you could show the electronic control panels on both sides of the fuselage but I opt to close them.

There is a 1/48 scale version available from HB if you are keen on something bigger.

Have a nice day.
