Just got this model yesterday (waiting on my "Peanut" & Spang models) and thought I'd share a couple pictures...first thing I noticed...they fixed the lower MLG doors, so they are on the back of the gear now instead of the front like the old models....anyways...here are a couple pics...

Is that 2 tone grey a scale paint scheme?
I am looking for a good example of the Light and dark ghost grey for my model A10.

whiteside - the shading on that model is pretty darn close to where its shaded on the real thing, but the dark grey isnt *that* grey. they are very close shades, not too noticable from very far away.

And Remember, Crew Chiefs make it happen..... PIL SUNG!

I forgot that we had a "Let's Roll" jet. Our Wing/Squadron standard is to have the AIM-9 DRA on station 11, and the ECM pod (which, from the pictures, looks like a ALQ-119, not the ALQ-131 that we use) on station 11.

Other than that, nice to see one of our jets in the Armour collection.

prkiii,

Looks great! Does Armour (or someone who sells this) have a website? I'm pretty sure I used to have the address of one, but that got lost a while back...

Thanks!

I have the SP and EL units, hope they make some others like the 104th

Great model. I'd love to see a model built for 120 down there too. You guys got a couple of great birds.
