Here are some pictures of the P-Model A4C that I have just completed. I think the model made up into a very nice 1/50 scale aircraft to put in my collection of modern 1/50 scale aircraft. I was particularly impressed by how well the refueling probe, hook and landing gear went together. The model comes with one Mk 82 bomb and two external fuel tanks. I choose to print a second Mk 82 out and put the external fuel tank on the center line with the two Mk 82's on the wing pylons.
Problems I ran into, first the connection between the bottom of the wing and the bottom of the fuselage left a gap. I cut a piece of white paper and filled the gap in. Several problems with the tail but that is my fault for not looking at the directions carefully enough. You are supposed to cut the fin out so that the stabilizers glue into the fin. I missed that until I had the fin mounted. I stuck a tooth pick through the fin and mounted the stabilizers on that. There is a piece that goes on the bottom of the fin which will cover the exhaust. I missed that completely and had to jury rig some pieces to cover up my mistake.
