Surface painting was done using acrylic color Vallejo models, mixed to match actual aircraft FS paints, and sealed with clear gloss varnish Vallejo.

Very excited about this popping up as I have the A-7 by Hobbyboss.

Some great shots of the undercarriage which, as usual, is excellent. Ill be using this as reference pictures, if you dont object.

Its just beautiful.

The A-7 from HobbyBoss has multiple issues, both in general shape and size.

I don't want to sound totally negative here, but the fact is, the Trumpeter 1/32 kits, and the HB 1/48 kits that came from the same set of CAD data are just flat wrong from the leading edge of the wing forward. The entire forward fuselage is flattened, which throws every single shape up there way out of whack. The canopy, windscreen, radome, and intake are all horribly mis-shapen.

Like any airplane, some will say the kits look fine as-is. It's a matter of personal choice whether the inaccuracies in the kits bother you or not, but it's not a matter of opinion as to whether they exist. They do, that's a fact.

canopy is flattened

Here the differences
 
Great work Millo love the A7 Corsair and you have done a fantastic job on this one.

I will have to get me a 1/48 scale one
