Hasegawa 1/48 A-4N IDF
With all its fit issues, Hasegawa's Scooter is a very nice kit that depicts well the aircraft. Hasegawa had a dedicated IDF late Skyhawk version in a limited edition boxing. These kits quickly disappeared from the market leaving the necessity to use resin extended exhaust nozzle and the 30mm DEFA guns on the M version kit.
Awesome job and really fine result, Rafi! Arguably the Scooter looks best in IDF camo colors!
Thank you Spiros!
Very well done. Build and finish look super.
Thank you Bob.
Ahoy Rafi. Your compact little bomber looks great. Putting all those decals on would drive me nuts, but you did a super job.
Thank you Thomas.
Very nice Skyhawk. IDF camo looks awesome, and excellent weathering is spot on.
Thank you Jarmo.
Gorgeous Israeli scooter Rafi, she looks great.
Thank you Neil.
Very sharp paint job and weathering.
Thank you Dan.
Love the paint and weathering - just right.
Thank you Chas.
Another superb Rafi Model.
Thank you Tom!
A wonderful IDF Skyhawk, Rafi @blackmopane
Definitely a great looking camouflage scheme.
Thank you John!
Excellent Scooter, Rafi. I have a Hobbycraft N model in the stash that needs to finally be built. Thanks for the encouragement.
Thank you John.
Another hit Rafi - love the IDF scheme on the Scooter. When I was a kid on an airbase in Alabama, a friend of my dad's was ferrying an IDF-painted Skyhawk across the pond and stopped by - got to see it up close.
Thank you Greg!
I spent much time in close proximity to these IDF aircraft. I think that it paid its dividends 😉
This A-4 turned out great ! Especially nice painting! I’ve got the Hasegawa A-4C to build, hopefully soon . Yours is inspiration for me.
Thank you Jay!
I look forward to see the results.
