Airfix 1/72 A-4B/Q #3

Installed some weight (about 5-6g) inside the nose as this kit sure will sit on its tail otherwise.


The main landing gear wells have some details while the nose gear well is relatively "empty", added some 0.2mm wire inside. 



It is time to close the fuselage and the drop tank. Putty and sanding time.


Adding the rest of wings and fuselage parts to make it look like a A-4



Overall the seams are manageable. The wings are almost perfectly fitted without filler, however, there is a gap in front of and after cockpit, and another one in front of nose gear well and around the gun holders on both wing roots. Applied some green stuff putty and clean the excessive putty with cotton stick with water. Wait for next steps.
