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

After a few rounds of filling and sanding, re-scribed the panel lines which are missing. Ready for next steps.

Filled the air intake and rear exhaust with foam and started paint job from the drop tank and bottom of fuselage, also applied a thin layer of black #1500 primer around seams of fuselage to check. 

Bottom surface and drop tank / top surface white area is painted in this way in order :

  - #1500 black primer

  - Finishers Super Shell White mottling 

  - light yellow mottling

  - thin layer of Mr Color c308

  - thin layer of Gaia 071 light grey

Gear wells are covered by c156

There is a thin gap not filled on the IP cover, applied small amount of Finishers green putty and hope to close it soon. 

Pacific Rim Bracer Phoenix - Bandai HG kit

I saw these kits in local hobby stores couple of years back, but now it is much harder to find one. 

The surface details are very nice compared to most of the HG Gunpla kits. 

Starwars Tie Fighter 1/72 model kit from Bandai

How could I miss it ????

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.
