It was a PE kinda of day for this and finished off the parts for the wheel bay . Many tiny parts and only one lost to the great blue yonder . Very pleased with myself over that  ;D This took about 4 an 1/2 hours . Next up is the ammo bins on the fire wall and this part is ready for the fuselage . Before I start adding paint the wing gun bays will be next . I still have to cut out the sections on the fuselage and there will be lots of thinning and hopefully this part will not affect the landing flaps locations . I'm enjoying the build so far on having to plan it all it and getting things to fit  :)

Sure makes a difference Alexis, that's going to look marvellous under a coat of paint. Inspired by your build, I've just picked up the F8 boxing at a good price which I'll be doing it as the captured one flown by RCAF 401 Squadron.
Cheers,
Dave.

Thanks guys !  :)

Good for you Dave  :) When the kit was first released I paid 30 bucks at the hobby shop . Enjoyed the build so much I went and pick up another one . I would like to see Revell do an A-3 or A-4 .

Guy , it is an excellent kit and I recommend you give one a go .

Rick , PE is the devils detail and there is still a fair bit more of it !
