I have 13 in the stash. But these two will be kit markings. The A will be VA-93 Blue Blazers bicentennial scheme. The B will be VA-215 Barn Owls bicentennialStikpusher wrote:They do look good! Very unusual that the white to gray demarcation is so different between the two. The middle of the intake is what is usually seen on the old full color scheme. What squadron markings will these two be in?

Re: Building the Doomed
I went a looked those schemes up. Very nice choices! I did the VA-93 Linebacker scheme a couple of years ago. I still have a couple more A-7s in the stash.

I have always liked the lines of these aircraft. When I was a kid, I used to draw a lot and these aircraft were the subject of interest in most instances. Great progress and it's gotta feel good to get a model down off of the shelf and finish 'er up. Looking good Johnny.

That looks great!
