  1. Thank you~ I use Gunze color C303, C309, C310 and C311. Your Thunderbolt looks great too!
  2. Thank you. The kit fits well, and has some very thin parts like gears-bay doors and others, but all reccessed lines and rivets are just too shallow. Ahh... decals are very thick.
  3. Looking great! Sharp and neat. Love it.
  4. All spray works are done and ready to weathering.
  5. Post-shading and fading was done color by color.
  6. Finemolds has shallower lines and rivets than other brands, even in the instruction book, primer is not recommended, so I decided not to spray layers over the layers, instead I free-handed sprayed the 3-tones-camoflage like puzzles.
  7. Starting with the seats. Those come from Mini Craft Collection (M.C.C) 3D printed parts. USAF late version with the hard case for parachute. Hand painted with water-based acrylic color.
  8. Yeah, like Curt just replied... If they include some CBUs would be the best, but they didn't...
  9. Some pics of the new sprue from GWH A-10A
  10. My hog is finally done. Most interested topic "fitting", good, but not as great as TAMIYA's F-35 standard. About fitting around the raised rivets areas, no putty and sanding needed or very minium sanding needed. I made magnets for all the pylons and ordnances, so I could switch GBU-31 to GBU-39, LAU-68 to LAU-131, AGM-65 to GBU-38, LITNING pod to SNIPER XR. I also planed to have MJ-1C and ground staffs on the base to make a little diroma, so the kit is officially not finished yet. M.C.C 3D printed "ACES II" ejection seat D.W. 3D printed "A-10" landing ge
  11. Thank you guys! D&W is working on the gears for warthog, think it shall be on the shelf around August.
  12. Some small progress, I've strengthened the weatherings on some specific areas, mainly on the forward fuselage, which is very interesting caused by wind-blowing the "Remove before flight" tapes, which I cannot recall I have seen on any other airplanes. Also, I added windshield frame and canopy electric diverter strip by some left-over decals from other kit, seems work fine here. Ordnances are also "done", although the clear parts are still not in placed and some more weathering effects maybe needed. I added magnesium to the pylons and weapons, to add some more mix and matching games by my wishe
