Taking a break from the Bismarck diorama - the A-10

Well, not quite - I started this a while back, before relocating to our current place, where I did not have enough space to work on the Bismarck, other than small bits and pieces. So, I started the A-10 , Tamiya's 1/48. I'll keep very short ...

Blackdog details -all resin, very nice and crisp, plus the bits that go on the wings, plus one of the two engines, plus some PE, plus the seat.

All in all, the extras ended up costing more than the kit.

Lots of cutting involved.

Wings - nice, but I wanted to go nuts on them....

The left wing has the refueling "thang" - all scratched, styrene and PE. And more cutting.

Long story short, the final product is almost here - I only need to put the Pitot in place - PE.

Well, that was that - need a nice base and it's all done.

Thanks for watching.
