I would like to present you my latest releases
* Fujimi A-7E - I spend some time deciding between an US Navy LoViz scheme and a Greek aircraft. Well HAF Corsair IIs still fly nowadays and due to the very warm welcome here and the very kind support of some Greek modelers fellow (they are around here at Modelclub) I changed my mind in favor of the the HAF machine. It turned out a great experience as, I had not noticed but that is my first "Vietnam" type camo. So it open gates to future projects like the F-105 or F-111.
* F-18F : as I said I am a US NAVY freak - I just wanted to build an F-18F with all flying surfaces deflected as they generally are on the ground ant rest. The Hasegawa model is a very good one, only flaps must be cut and adapted. It is planned for a future magasine article.
Cheers
Eric B.

Η Aires κυκλοφορεί από ότι βλέπω δύο ρητινένια cockpits :
- 7147 A-7E Corsair II Cockpit Set- Early
- 7152 A-7E Corsair II Set- Late
γνωρίζει κάποιος ποιές είναι οι διαφορές τους (με μια γρήγορη ματιά έχουν τουλάχιστον διαφορετικό κάθισμα) και ποιό είναι το κατάλληλο για το επετιακό Α-7Ε της HobbyBoss;

Thank you dearly to you all for your very kind words...
Great job Eric ::eusa_clap:: ::icon_thumright:: And quite realistic. Even the bird droppings on the tail of the A-7E appear on your model !!! I also like your photographic skills, which add up on the realistic presentation of your models. However, there is a small mistake on the tail number of the greek aircraft. 160559 is not a greek aircraft. By changing the last digit to 0, 2 or 7, or even by flipping around 9 for making it a 6, you would have a greek A-7E. Other than that, it looks perfect ::icon_thumright::
Fisherman, thank you for your sharp eye and knowledge. I SWEAR i checked. :D
I actually wanted to depict 160550 but there are not enough "0"s on the Icarus decal sheet. I made further research and found 160556. I finally messed the thing up rotating the 6 to a 9. I also found photographs of 160552.
I'll correct this later today to 160556
Cheers
Eric B.

I once promised I would change my A-7 serial to 150556 to depict a real Greek A-7 corsair (I still don't know how I made my original mistake - the last minute fault!!
Here it is
