A-10 scheme, help needed

Happy New Year Everyone!
Anyone has more shots on this Warthog? Tail numbers and all? Would love to do this scheme on the newly becoming available A-10 from Aviation Jets through Pacific.

Thanks in advance!
Barry Hou

Here is a pic of it before they added the mouth to it. I believe there is a decal set available for this one, 79-123.

Hey Barry,
Any idea when the Aviation Jets A-10 will be available? And secondly, what size turbines will be ideal for it? Thanks

No telling at this point when it will be available, but the prototype should be ready soon. I am not sure of the size, but should be for 85 to 100N class.

Thanks,
Barry

One thing I have always loved about the Hog is all the little things it has for details, for someone like me that loves details like markings and small scale items it’s a awesome project! I always wanted to do one in the old solid OD green with the original shark mouth on it with lots of bombs.
Plus I have a mutual respect for the real guys, they were down in the weeds with us Apache guys taking turns on gun runs spreading metal cheer!

The great thing is that this A-10 will be light for its size and since this is an Aviation Jet kit the details your referring to will be amazing as is the SU-35.

Shot a whole roll of film that day on just the A-10s, wish I could find it. Once I maiden my small Skymaster I'm going to repaint it with the proper colors and w/o all the missing insignia and misspellings. If Aviation Jets does the same kind of job on the A-10 as they're doing on the SU-35 you guys will see the Skymaster up for sale.
