Thanks, Marco! Well the A-6 is almost ready for primer. I got the horizontal stabs installed and all the TRAM parts added such as the sensor ball and the scoop for the TRAM gear on the fuselage. Very trouble free build so far and this is probably one of the easiest of Monogram's big jets to assemble. Should have some primer down this weekend. Regards, Ian

Thanks, Pete! Small update on the A-6E as I have gotten the first shade of the camo applied. FS30279 was the color callout on this so I used LifeColor Acrylic and it sprayed on very smoothly. This color is used in several USN Aggressor schemes and is also a close match for the RAF Desert Tan before it turns pink from the sun. I found a few pits and dings I still have to sand out so I just have to do some touch-ups and then start some post shading. Regards. Ian
