Ottimo

This kit has been about for some years now in a variety of releases and markings, this version has been available since 1998. However, don’t let that put you off, it’s truly superb, with plenty of weapons and fuel tank options, and decals for 3 different aircraft. I guess because it’s been around for a while it’s available at a bargain price, especially when compared to more recently released 1/48 aircraft kits. Probably not ideal as a first kit, because although fairly straight forward, a little experience helps with some of the fiddlier sub-assemblies. The panel line detail is superb and belies the age of the tooling, and everything fits together accurately with very little filler needed. The transparent parts are acceptable, and decals go down nicely, although there’s not much in the way of airframe stencils. There’s plenty of aftermarket products available for this model and endless reference material on the internet, so if you want to go super-detailed you can. Personally, I built my model straight from the box other than adding a seat harness because I didn’t want to have a pilot figure. In conclusion, highly recommended. Oh, and don’t be fooled by the size of the box the kit arrives in, the Skyraider was a big aircraft, and this builds into a hefty model.
