Marek Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 It has been a bit time seens I´v post some progres on my Tomcat but i was planing things for it. First I wonted to find somebody to made some PE parts for me in 1/18 scale. The Eduard probably will do it but I´m steel waiting fo the final anwer. Than I wanted to find something to made the radar dish for the Tomcat. In one model shop I fined decales for car models which looks like compozit material so I decided that it is it and started to work on the radar asembly. Here is what I do have so far: First I´v thined kit fuselage parts inthe front: Then I made a new radar wall: And here it is compared to the kit part which is ofcourse on the left: A-10LOADER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
