wwesley Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Hi I am looking to form a group build for the Trumpeter A-6A or the new A-6E Tram. I am starting both kits now and will be making note of the corrections of both versions. I spent 10 years in Marine Intruders so I know something about the aircraft and use to paint Intruders. If your interested please contact me. Bill Wesley wwesley3@cox.net allthumbs, reconspit, Showtime 100 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Clunkmeister Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) I'd love to, but my F-100 calls, then my Skyraider, then my FW-44, then my 3 109s, then my F9F, then my DFW, then my Eindekker E.1, then my Gotha, then,... Well, you get the picture.Ask me again in 7 years or so. Edited January 3, 2015 by Clunkmeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daywalker Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Very interesting idea, since this is separate from LSP would 1/48 be allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) If it's 1/48, I'd be in. I just don't have the space for a 1/32 Intruder Mike Edited January 3, 2015 by M. Dragon Showtime 100 and Daywalker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthumbs Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) Great idea! Expect to see more builds now that Trumpeter has released the "Echo." One of their better offerings in my opinion, albeit pricey. And the Intruder is such a great modeling subject, in any scale - large open cockpit perched high atop the fuselage, "busy" wingfold internals, plenty of ordnance options, etc. Rich Edited January 3, 2015 by allthumbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lothar Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Definitely worth consideration, I fancy this one: Photo credit goes to David F. Brown, but since I paid for the picture I guess it's ok to post here. Lothar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showtime 100 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 If it's 1/48, I'd be in. I just don't have the space for a 1/32 Intruder Mike My thoughts as well (Re: 1/48th scale). And I have plenty of space for a 1/32nd scale build. It's the empty space in my wallet that's my limiting factor . Man; To do a Viet Nam era black radome Intruder or a 'radome tan' in 1/32nd scale; hubba-hubba! Dragon and Bill_S 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Mike Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 We tried a single type build awhile back with the newly released Tamiya Mustang, and IIRC, got a somewhat lukewarm response. I'd suggest a tandem build, or buddy build approach to start. Any build out of 1/32 can be shown in the "non-LSP works" section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Right now, the lack of decals for the Echo is what would stop me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
