SpanjaardI did a 1/72 A-7E ages ago... now I am going to sit and see it it has to be done 🙂

RonanAs Christian Bruer said, the wheels are too narrow so i've ordered the Reskit ones. That's the only issue with this kit in my opinion😉

Spanjaardi think he has added quite a few (excellent) details😉
i like the way you hold the kit , nice jig. 🙂

CuajeteVery nice details 👍.
Ronan, when you get Reskit's wheels, can you take a pic to compare with the kit ones, please? Thanks.

Palo MI finished a bad italleri kit a few months ago. At a far enough distance they might be considered to be about the same airplane. Those added details are very impressive, thanks for sharing, taking a seat.

Ronan@Michel : the folding is not in the kit, you have to do it by yourself but it is not very difficult...
@Cuajete : i will take pics of the wheels to compare Reskit and HB

RonanHere it is, the reskit wheels arrived today.
You can easily see the difference, the reskit ones are taller and much wider.

Patrick HagelsteinI've been away from the platform for a while. What better way to get back in (and be stumped in the face for how I suck at building models! 😉 ) than starting with Ronan's latest update. 🙂

Łukasz GlińskiHow to solve problems with deciding what to build next? Watch Ronan's albums and then you know: nah, these I'm gonna sell or build later on, not now😉

Spanjaardor take it the other way, now you have a fantastic tutorial of how they should be done😉

Patrick Hagelstein😄 Inside my head there's currently a battle of thoughts going on whether to follow up on Spanjaard's or Lukasz's approach. Still undecided.... 😉

Harry EderNot an easy decision Patrick! 😄
Ronan can you tell us why you improve the original tires if you have resin ones?
9 February 2021, 15:54
Ronan@Harry : my first idea was to improve the original wheels, so i've started to modify the main ones but when i saw the front wheels ( wide like a bicycle wheel ... ), i decided to buy the reskit wheels😉

RonanI'm currently setting the decals from Xtradecals :
they are very beautiful but horribly brittle, I have to touch up every decal. I recommend you not to buy this brand of decals 👎

Ingmar StöhrSorry to hear that! Very frustrating after so much work has already gone into the build.

Sergej ILooks already finished! 👍 Just snap the wings and gears on. Wonderful job!

Sy BarWow you sure it's only 1/72! That's a great job, hope I can get mine to look a 1/10 as good

Kamil RudzińskiŚwietny Corsair! Bardzo ładnie wykonany, świetnie uzbrojony. Duży "+" za podniesione skrzydła.

Hanno KleineckeAll the crisp details and cleanliness make it look like 48, extraordinary work ! 👍

Slavo HazuchaExcellent finish again - I love the complete balance of the job - nothing got neglected, nothing screams in your face - a pleasure to look at 👍
