So, I begin with old Tsukuda 1/72 Skyraider. Probably you can see this kit like Hobbycraft, history approx like Yak-38 kit

Greens, it's something so lacking on carrier deck .... I'll reduce this white-gray abundance

That looks similar to the old Monogram kit, with all the pylons moulded on.

Green is a good and different choice.

Regards,
Bruce

Excellent choice. Gotta love the old 'Able Dog' & the scheme looks very cool.

Thank you, Guys!

some progress

and old Monogram A-1E, I think, similar with Tsukuda only pylon molded on, but other modification of Skyraider

Nice choice. I like the thought of a green bird myself but whichever way you go it's going to be a great subject.

Making great headway on the ol Able Dog. My first reaction was it that it looks alot like the old Fujimi mould.

Any way, you have picked a great scheme.
