Is anyone going to ever produce a 1/72 Chengdu J-7 series?
farmerboy replied to farmerboy's topic in Jet Modeling
I did it with the Bilek Mig-21F-13....took me 2 years and I am still not happy with results. Scratchbuildingthe Cranked Arrow wings and a canopy was tough -

Is anyone going to ever produce a 1/72 Chengdu J-7 series? I love this variation of the plane and my kitbash came out ok. I am sure a series like this would be big sellers since I would buy at least 5!

My love of military aircraft began as a kid...modeling lets me keep (somewhat mediocre) copies of many of them! I tried collecting diecast but there was a lack of accomplishment on my end plus but modifying kits I can build almost anything I want. I sing in a hard rock band to help hide my nerd side!

Any info on Singapore A-4 dorsal avionics hump/bump?
farmerboy replied to farmerboy's topic in Jet Modeling
The hump on the link looks like it's for an A-4B, the Achtung one seems more accurate. -
I have always been more of a Hard Rock/ Heavy Metal guy but I enjoyed so many of Prince's songs and his musicianship. One hell of of a singer and guitar player. He will be missed. Perhaps in Tribute I can get my band to cover one of his songs.

The decal instructions just said "Dark Green" and looking at pics of this terror on the net I found FS34079 to be a close match....I added a couple more pics using the flash this time. Who would have thought using the flash was a better idea!! I never claimed that my photo skills or lack thereof was my strength :-)

Should the base kit be a A-4B or C? -
I am building a 1/72 A-4 Skyhawk in early scheme but can't find a view of the avionics bump from the top. I know it differs a bit from the Argentine A-4B or Q. Any help, photos from the top or dimensions would be greatly appreciated!!
