Janne,

  Sure looks like you've been running a munitions assembly line. the bombs really turned out incredibly well. the finally dusting really made a huge difference.  and the Mervs certainly look mean and lean.  

  

  Looking forward to your display case post, but at the same time following your epic build has become like a favorite TV show that I follow weekly, but now it's run is finally over.

Thanx Joel 😄

You've been supportive and positive all through the build, much appreciated mate 😄

though it looks like attaching the outboard pylons is trickier and more extensive than I thought, what the he was kinetic thinking???

I'll be making a little update from combating those pesky pylons...

OK, this is the final update!

The outer pylons gave me some grief...


The pylon look like this...

And where it goes looks like this....and they simply aren´t compatible!

So I cut off the brace in the front, was not existant on any refs anyways.

And here my Dremel konked out on me....no juice!

After a bit of charging I went at the pylons hard! I had to sand off loads of material to get a fit...and it won´t look pretty!

But with that last struggle the Intruder is FINISHED!!!!

Janne,

   that's what internet modeling friends are for. 🍻

 

   Excellent job on once again on a needed modification to get the stations to fit. How Kinetic could have just left them that way is beyond me.  The finished A-6 really looks quite outstanding. 

Joel

Janne,

 

Congratulations, you're one of the few to conquer the mighty Kinetic A-6. Maybe you should build another one to see if it goes together just as good as this one 🤣.  She looks great sitting on the deck with a healthy load of whoop-fool. Congrats once again!

Give it to a friend perhaps? Someone you love to hate?

It's yours if you want it... 

 

Sure! I like the Prowler! When I was a kid I got this photo book from my dad called Aces High. In it were some pics of the Prowler on a carrier deck. The tinted canopies provided a nice contrast to the well worn grey paint.
