Monogram 1/48 AD-6 backdated to an AD-3 of VMA 212 in Korea
This started out as OOB build using kit decals. Unfortunately they were toast and did not cooperate when being applied. I used Euro decals for the Skyraider and they were excellent. I scratchbuilt the early AERO bomb racks then added [...]
