miketippingmodels Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 1/32 Trumpeter A-6A INTRUDER “505 DEVIL LEADER” This is the trumpeter kit, and with all its faults, it somehow comes together pretty well. This build is from the “flight of the intruder film” and depicts 505 devil leader cool hand Luke and Cole Virgil Cole getting ready for a strike. The only addons I used are the Quinta studios cockpit detail, and the Readoak figures, it is painted with HATAKA acrylic paints. Instead of having the wings fully opened, or folded in the parking position, I decided to have the wings being unfolded, as no one builds them this way, it’s a simple bent metal tube that holds the wings in place. I used the AMMO night blue cement, as it shows where you have glued, great stuff, but if you use AMMO gloss varnish, it reactivates the blue in the glue and it all shows through where you have glued, so be careful, if you use this stuff.

aircommando130 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 That's awesome! So cool seeing the illusion of the wings coming down to lock. I really like the Intruder too and have been resisting buying one! Figures and the base add to the full effect of carrier operations as well. Great job!

Jim Barry Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 You can't just take pictures of the real plane and put them here on RFI. That's cheating! (ha!) Way to go! This is incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
