Fujimi's 1/72 scale
A-7E Corsair II

by Satoshi Hashimoto

Fujimi's 1/72 scale A-7E Corsair II is available online from Squadron

Here is my Fujimi's 1/72 scale A-7E representing a plane of s/n 159292, 335BS, 116CW, Hellenic (Greek) Air Force, at Royal International Air Tattoo, 1998.

The model was built using the Aires resin cockpit and Eduard photo-etched parts. I also added some extra scratch built details mainly on the landing gear.

The wheel wells were detailed with plastic rod and various widths of metal wires.

Mr.Color lacquers were used for most basic painting, and Tamiya enamels with turpentine for the weathering washes.

Decals were chosen from Icarus Decals' "Hellenic Air Force Jets Pt.1". This is very high quality and definitely one of the best decal sheet that I have ever used.

Highly recommended.
