Posted by humper491 on Saturday, January 2, 2010 9:06 PM

beginning to gather all the necessities for the trumpeter 1/32 a-10.  i'm not going for any particuliar plane, just something "for my fancy", sorta say. i'm looking for some interesting decals, have looked at twobobs and cartograf, but didn't find much there. any suggestions where else to look?

 Being in Mi. you oughtta go for the Mi. ANG., I wish I had when I did mine last spring. I know there is a set in 32nd but can't remember exactly where or how to find em. Ref. pics would be easy enough to get(if you can wait til summer. They are always at the Thunder over Mi. airshow at Willow Run, and, now being based at Selfridge, of course, they'll always be there as well. (I think that one is in July and it's free!!!)

 For the kit, if you haven't already noticed, is gonna take a bit of putty and lots of sanding. The kit ordnance sucks. I used leftovers from a pair of Academys F-18s. I do still have a couple leftovers, 2 each of; aim9 sidewinders / gbu-31 JDAM / GBU-24 paveway III. If you'd like to use em, I can send em to ya. (Or, my band is playing on the 16th at the Doghouse, there in Clinton TWP, on Van ***. We could meet up there.)

visit the Sprue Brothers site and do a search on A-10, everything for that subject including decals will be displayed.

yeah, i had considered mi ang. heck, i live 15 min from selfrige! wasn't aware they had a-10's there now, shows you how often i get home!! i haven't got the kit yet, but mark hembree told me the ordnance in the kit was mis-shaped. he sent me some links and i was able to find a seperate kit for the ordnance, i just ordered that last night.

isn't the doghouse on groesbeck, north of 15 mile i think?  i'm about 5 minutes from there,  but gotta hit the road on tuesday.  depending on how frieght is that weekend, i might try to swing back into town, i'll come up there and check out your band. if i'm here, i'll shoot ya quick msg that morning let ya know if i can make it.
