1/48 Brazilian A-4M Skyhawk VF-1 FAlcoes
This is the venerable Hasegawa A-4M in Brazilian Navy markings. I also modified a Monogram 1/48 figure as a pilot-pretty close. I have a carrier deck display too. This is a relatively rare boxing I found. I used the Eduard detail set & Aftermarket decals. I wonder if the new Magic Factory A-4M will cover this variant? I still think the Hasegawa kit is a great kit. There are a few addition for this variant covered in the boxing. The big one is the Tail antennas which were on the Eduard set...BTW- This is a very close to the A-4KU boxing version since Brazil acquired these planes from Kuwait.
Steve,
Excellent job, Steven!
Beautiful job, Steven @sjcorvi
The pilot is a nice addition to this display.
Very nice Scooter!
Thanks for sharing.
Out of the ordinary for sure. Nice work and a good result.
Thanks everyone
I also have a Brazilian AF 1/48 F-80 [Monogram of course-not hat monstrosity HB kit] in the works...for something completely different LOl
Steve,
Congrats, another kit on your build list done!
I have a lengthy scooter list, hopefully the next one is almost done and soon to be posted here: TA-4PTM.
I have a Brazilian A-4M in the queue along with an Argentine Fightinghawk, among others.
Beautiful in flight shot of the view of the commemorative scheme from the rear cockpit of a Brazillian TA-4(KU)!
You did a great job.
Dan.
Very nice build of my favorite modern jet which has managed to stay in active military service. You did really good.
It inspired me to post my build of an AF-1 Skyhawk. Thanks for the inspiration.
Nice in-flight photo's and a great model!
One of the nicest looking jets, nicely done.
Great looking build. @sjcorvi
Lovely Scooter in Brazilian scheme! Looks great.
