Squizzy 78 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Absolutely awesome build Marcel! Even with the wings folded, it must be a huge model! Flawless work again, also I’m really looking forward to seeing what you can do with the Tamiya tomcat! Marcel111 and phasephantomphixer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the A-6A and am curious if there are any things to absolutely watch out for? Thanks! - Daniel Hello Daniel, the kit is generally excellent and with hardly any major inaccuracies. If you are building the E you’ll need to reposition the inside wing fence. One major irritation is that Trumpeter threw rivets all over the airframe, these are not apparent on the real thing so I filled them with superglue. The kit intakes have truncating intakes with undersized engine fronts. I rebuilt the intakes and engines … but this isn’t as noticeable as the riveting issue.

Greg W Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Beautiful, very well done and a real pleasure to just soak in the good photography! Marcel111 and phasephantomphixer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel111 Posted December 6, 2021 Author Share Posted December 6, 2021 Thx again for all the comments and encouragement! Btw I have received quite a bit of positive feedback on my photography. Chuck is the guy that taught me everything I know about taking pics of models, so big thanks to him. Steve has an incredible eye for detail, he sent me a PM to let me know that the red inflight refueling light was missing on the nose of my Intruder. I had actually completed the little light but forgotten to glue it on, so thanks Steve! Here some quick phone pics with the light now on... it's the little red thing in front of the left windscreen.

Madmax Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Marcel, I agree with David (Dukie99) - this is a work of art! The subtlety of the grey tones offset by the crisp detail of the working bits is just brilliant. Bring on the Tomcat... Sean Marcel111 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeroen_R90S Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Looks awesome! The build log was a joy to follow and, the result looks great! The removed dimples in particular... I'm still torn on those on mine :-S Marcel111 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael931080 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Hi Marcel, I was looking over your beautiful build again for the A-6 and I was wondering if you used any aftermarket on it or was it a straight from the box build? Thanks, Michael Marcel111 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
