  3. Thanks Dave, I'm glad you liked. The panel-lines are raised, I re-scribe it. Hi Lotar, thank you for follow this WIP. I don't have a final decision on the markings, I like the "Firebirds" colors...but I can change if I found other squadron... Don't give up Toadwbg, its easer to made a copy on plastic (and cleaner) Thanks for your comments. Javier
  4. time for a small update.. I opened the ladder space and insert verlinden parts: Verlinden's ladders are too difficult to ensemble straight...or my skills are not good enough. I decided to create it with plastic: I glued with elmo 5 pieces of evergreen to re-create latters: assembling: dry-test: comments are welcome, Javier
  5. Small update, I enclosed the frame for the cage: and start with the boarding ladder: Verlinden set its not exactly same size... Javier
  6. Thanks Jesse, your Super Hornet its looking amazing!!! yes, Its assembled and ready for painting. Thanks, was a long break....I hope to move faster now. Thank you!! thank you, its a complement coming from you!!! but you are the very impressive scratch building skills, your TRAM inspired me to move forward and try to do more detail. Javier
  7. update time!!! I scrash build the arresting hook and all the section... interior walls for the cage dry fitting all the parts Javier
  8. After long time I restart the construction of the EA-6A ( And after some inspiration with some Intruders and Prowler on the forum).. I re-do the boxes for the speed brakes, internal space for the cage and rear wall to install the tail hook... better some pictures: Design of boxes Ensamble Testing regards
  9. Thanks Bigasshammm, Im not an expert, but ea-6a, a-6e and a-6 could use standard V-shape folding wings, some a-6e have retrofit with a composite folding wings, it look like a white tube instead a V shape system. I hope that helps Thanks ghatherly.... Javier
  10. Thanks Darren, you are right...I has been "collecting" accessories and updates for more than a year...I'll be using the Revell decals for Firebirds... I'll saved it for a new one on the future... Javier
  11. Thanks Andre, yes, I want to open the birdcage, the birdcage came on the Eduard set, I'll see if that need more detail... Thanks VA-115EFR Thanks jfmajor60, yes I don't like raise lines. after I holed and create all the detail I'll re-scribe it. I'll keep looking your posts with your EA-6E, what aftermarket stuff did you order? I'll post more pictures this weekend. Javier
  12. base coat: Color and detail: Wahs: Javier
  13. I'm going to create small projects for each part that I'll be building, then I opened the radome: create a wall for the radar base: detailing: base and radar detailed: Javier
  14. I started opening holes for exhaust: instructions are not clear how much space need to be open... dry fit: Cockpit dry fit: Verlinden set its for A-6E, then it's a little small. I added a small plastic strip at the rear of the cockpit, and support strips. Javier
  15. Hi Guys Finally I take courage to start my EA-6A with extras as wing folders from Wolfpack and the idea to scratchbuild some parts as open radome with radar, cage, service panel...etc. I'll see how much can I accomplish with this one... the start picture with extras: Verlinden A-6E Update set, Wolfpack Wing folded set, Quick boost refueling probe Eduard set, Steel slime lights...information from Aerofax and pictures from web sites... comments and suggestions are welcome!!
