WEEK ONE – Academy 1/72 A-10A – Commission Build Number Two Started

This second commission build is the Academy 1/72 A-10A from “Operation Iraqi Freedom” I will be using the kit decals for the aircraft from the 75th Fighter Squadron of the 23rd wing. This will also be mounted in a display case. It will be mostly “out of the box” build with the exception of using Master Model’s brass gun barrels and pitot tube.

I was able to get the cockpit assembled and installed into the fuselage. I am currently building up the wings, tails, and engine assembly. I should have the aircraft mostly together so I can the base coats of the light ghost grey and dark ghost grey of paint.

You can see all the photos and details from start to finish in the build log at: 1/72 A-10A from Operation Iraqi Freedom
