TwoBobs has released an interesting new set for the Hasegawa
1/48 A-4M Skyhawk. These are three typical line aircraft from
VMA-211 Avengers and VMA-214 Black Sheep. The aircraft are
all painted in low visibility gray schemes with subdued markings.
This decal set comes in handy as you can build one of these
aircraft as they appeared late in their careers and won't look
like something straight from the box! The three aircraft represented
are:
- A-4M, 159489, CF/12, VMA-211, Aug 1980
- A-4M, 158185, CF/07, VMA-211, Aug 1987
- A-4M, 158155, WE/8, VMA-214, May 1986
The printing is perfectly in register. The instructions are
printed double-sided in color, providing excellent color scheme
as well as decal placement information.
While maintenance stenciling was likely at a minimum with
these paint schemes, TwoBobs provides enough markings to build
three complete aircraft.
