A little late start but here we go! It’s a Hasegawa A-10C Thunderbolt II in 1:72 scale. Merry Christmas from South Carolina, USA!

Leaving these “NO STEP” stencils off. They are way too big!

Thanks! I’m hoping I can get the weathering done before the end of the year!

Calling this one done! I’m leaving the ordnance off for now. I tried to use a clay wash on it but the kit has raised panel lines and I guess it just didn’t stick well.

The end result looks like the jet was in a dust storm.
