FlyingSnowmew Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Are there any options to replace the nose of the GAU-8 cannon on the Hobby Boss 1/48 A-10? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kenlilly106 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 The only one I know of is the Flightpath PE set, it has a shroud assembly that you roll and attach to the kit, I think the set is sized for the Monogram kit. Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingSnowmew Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 That's disappointing. I screwed mine up trying to drill out the holes. Were they ever covered on the ground? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Frequently (if not usually) covered on the ground. Not a disaster though. How about just a piece of K&S brass tubing of the proper size? Or Plastruct styrene tubing? Or a big fat piece of sprue? Not all disasters require aftermarket goodies :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not all disasters require aftermarket goodies :) I'd still have to drill the holes. And I failed at drilling holes in the indents on the kit barrel. I'll give it a coat of paint and hopefully it won't look that bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
