Andrew Doppel Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Just finished this afternoon. My Australian 'What If?' A-10 Thunderbolt II. I have done it up as a 6 Squadron RAAF aircraft using both the kit and Aussie Decals 1/72 6 Squadron 60th Anniversary F111 decals cut to size. The kit is the 1/48 Italeri Thunderbolt II (2655) with Eduard cockpit P/E, Verlinden RBF tags and a little extra scratch building. It was an absolute pleasure to build with no major faults encountered. I hope you like the finished product. Regards Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
strikeeagle801 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 That is a pretty sweet looking Aussie razorback! I think I like that name even better than the Warthog, but either one fits. Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have just realised that this should have gone into the finished projects slot. I hope it doesn't matter that I have put it in here? Regards Andrew ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChernayaAkula Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 What a great-looking A-10 you've got there! I've said it before, but the Aussie colours look absolutely marvellous on a Warthog. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

martin_sam_2000 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 It looks as if the A-10 was made for that scheme. Too bad the USAF won't sell any to some of us other countries. Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sean Thanks Sean, I agree. I'm thinking the Australian Army/Air Force would've loved some of these too. They're a very impressive machine aren't they?
