Default Mibo A-10 Build

Guys,

I've always wanted a Mibo A-10! Every time I saw one I'd say 'next time' to myself. When Al's 'Snowy' version appeared I nearly buckled but I'd just bought a TomaHawk Hawk. So, 'next time' never came.....until a few weeks back I got the chance to pick one up including ALL options at a great price! This also coincided, to the day, with a friend wanting to sell his BBI F15 cockpit and pilot so I snapped that up too.

I was not planning on doing a build thread as time is short but with so much A-10 knowledge out there and no instructions it seemed daft not to. Also, those who know me won't be surprised to know it won't be a fast build!! Having said that, my wife and I are expecting child number 2 in April so I've sort of set myself a goal of finishing it by then - a goal I'll likely miss wildly LOL.

Anyway, I will post some pics later tonight. I've made good progress (for me) so far and I have to say the quality of the kit is amazing. Also, with all the ordnance and scale items it is staggering the number of molded items that make up this model!!

Cheers
Mark
