Inspiration, previous builds.


Recommended Posts

I have a couple of projects to get me started, but does anyone have a good source for info on A-37s in Latin America and / or decals in 1/72?

I understand they are very popular in the region.

There is someone selling the Albatros set on eBay, has a ton of markings for the a-37 I've been thinking of buying it and then just parting out to who ever wants them for a small donation plush shipping. It seams to me that $25 for a decal set from which you will only using one scheme is nuts.

The Albatros decals are the most receint set released, but SuperScale kicked out two A-37 sets, 72-647 with markings for El Salvador, and another set that I don't recall the number, but it has markings for Colombia.

FCM also had a set, 7202LA with markings for Chile and Uruguay, but that set is hard to find.

Thanks guys!

Tango, what markings did you use for the FAB texan?

The decals were made by my own. I drawed them in CorellDraw software and printed on colour laser printer.

Pep: Yep, the Dragonfly is re-scribed.
